I love pigeons
I want to take the time and thank everyone that has liked our page, and those that have interest in our youth race. I have handled, raised and raced pigeons for over 35 years. Something about these birds, still completely intrigues me! How they find their way home, is simply amazing, of course there's all kinds of theories and scientific evidence, they say. To say the least, these beautiful birds are remarkable. I remember in my teens, talking to the older gentleman in our club, the memories are still etched in my heart, and soul. Unfortunately this sport, has seen numerous clubs, disband, and the number is increasing, every year. Most of our younger generation, knows nothing of these remarkable birds. They associate them with the pigeons they see in the cities. Most don't have a clue the history of these birds, and their amazing role played in our past wars, or how many lives they have saved, in combat. I want to educate the youth, and try to preserve our dying sport. I invite all junior members from age 6 to 18, to send some birds, and let's have a great race series. I will work hard, to have your birds healthy and in great condition. Put your best pairs together this winter, and send your best! Let's have a great series in 2021
