Evening everyone

I'm currently out of town but wanted to provide a quick update.

Later tomorrow (Friday), I'll post a final bird list of the ones who returned home.

Tomorrow I will also post some dates of when you can pick up your birds.

Congratulations again to everyone!

Good morning everyone

Congratulations to everyone on some great birds returning home yesterday (and a few more today)!

Had a great time visiting with people who were able to make it to our big day.

I will keep you posted as to pick up information.  Or you're welcome to contact Rick 905-329-5139 if you want to chat earlier than when I get my post up here!

Thanks everyone for your support!

Evening flyers,

The MAIN RACE is on for tomorrow - Monday, Oct. 23rd, 2023!

Rick is basketing as I type and we're ready for this year's main event.  Our driver will be at the Latchford Community Centre (300 miles) and will aim to release the birds at 9am.  Of course this is dependent on fog, etc. 

Our loft manager Derek will be there and we are hoping to capture a Facebook Live release for you.  I'll aim to have him connect to our Facebook Page just before 9am.

Good luck to everyone,

Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")

Hi everyone

Looks like we’re going for a Monday MAIN RACE. If the weather stays the way it is, there might be a slight head wind for most of the race on Monday.

Stay tuned for another post tomorrow (Sunday) to confirm!

Have a great night,

Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")

Good morning everyone 

The weather isn't looking great for Sunday so unfortunately looks like we will be aiming for a Monday or Tuesday MAIN RACE.

We'll keep you posted with the latest as the weekend goes on!

Have a great one,

Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")

Evening folk,

Congratulations to the winners of PREP RACE #3:

1st Place (TIE) - 1 CR Loft & AC3SKYFLAKES 

3rd Place - Lucky 7

Just FYI - I've turned the wifi off to the coop for the night (those of you know that our connection to the loft is sometimes a little patchy - as our loft is quite a distance from our house).

I will make sure to update the late stragglers tomorrow as I've left the clock running to capture any that still return.

Thanks for everyone's support online (Facebook) and some hilarious visitors who joined the return home today!

Morning everyone 

Rick had the birds released at 8:30 this morning from McFADDEN road just on the outskirts of North Bay.

I will be posting the basket list momentarily.

We have a release video - Rick has been trying to send but reception poor where he is - I'll get it posted asap when he's closer to home.

Good luck to everyone!

Evening everyone

Sorry for lack of daily posts - I've been under the weather but hopefully will be feeling better soon!

CONGRATULATIONS to our PREP RACE #2 winners:

1st Place - Red Deer Syndicate

2nd Place - Cruz Family Loft

3rd Place - Tavares Racing Pigeons

Rick was hopeful to hope PREP RACE #3 tomorrow (Monday) however, the weather is not cooperating so he's now hopeful for a Tuesday race.  We are still aiming for our MAIN RACE on the weekend (Sunday, Oct. 22nd) - fingers crossed the weather permits.

Keep watching here on the UPDATES page as well as our social media for any special information.

Hope you all had a great weekend,

Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")

Hi everyone

Just FYI - the speeds are looking fast.  There is a tailwind - and the race station that I put in the system was a bit far.  Rick released the birds between Gravenhurst and Huntsville.

Wanted to share that information.  There is currently 132 birds clocked in at 11:40am our time.

Video of the release to come!  GPS reading was taken at release - I'll try and change the coordinates in the race station online.

Thanks,

Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady") 

Good morning everyone,

The birds are on their way to 150 miles for prep race #2!

The weather seemed to cooperate for the plan and it's on.

A basketing list is ready on wincompanion- stay tuned for release time and any other information info.

Good luck to everyone!!
