Hi Everybody,

Everybody who wants to participate in this money race, must provide the race secretary, Karol Pawlowski, with the band numbers of the young birds he/she nominates for this race.  Your list must be handed in during basketing for our first 2021 young bird race.  Members may nominate up to 10 birds at $10 per bird, to be paid with basketing for our first 2021 young bird race.

Please feel free to contact any of the Executive members (Brian Nicholson, Dennis Gubert, Chris Moore, Karol Pawlowski or David Kaplan) if you have any questions.

Hope to see you at basketing for our 1st YB race ... with your list of nominations!

Hello Everybody,

All the club members who qualify to vote on the new proposed young bird race schedule have voted, and they all voted “yes”.  So, we will be flying this new schedule, starting with the club training toss from Rosedale Bridge on Saturday July 31^st, followed by our first race from Sunshine Valley on Saturday August 7^th, if the weather and wildfires allow.

Keep training those young birds, and we hope to see you soon!

Hello Everybody

Here are the Minutes from our General Club Meeting of Saturday April 3rd, 2021

Hello Everybody,

Because the Coronavirus pandemic is currently worse than ever before in BC, the Executive (Brian Nicholson, Dennis Gubert, Chris Moore & David Kaplan), have decided to call off all club activities for the foreseeable future, including the November 21^st, 2020 club meeting and auction of birds, as well as the early January pigeon show.

It is ALWAYS better to err on the side of caution and to rather be safe than sorry.  If any member attending a club activity, or any family member or contact becomes ill and suffer with Covid-19 because of a club activity, we will never be able to forgive ourselves.

If the pandemic is again better controlled in BC early next year, we may schedule our Annual General Meeting during March 2021, and a follow-up meeting during April 2021, before we start our racing season early May.  There may even be an effective vaccine against Covid-19 available by then, that will make it much safer for us to continue with our normal club activities in 2021.

Please check your emails regularly, because we will send out notifications about the 2021 pigeon bands early in January 2021.  Members who may need bands before our AGM in March, may then arrange to have their bands mailed to them and cover the costs for that by eTransfer, or arrange with me to pick up their bands at my home in Maple Ridge.  All club members must also pay their $50 annual membership fee for 2021 before our first old bird race.

We will communicate all news and/or new developments to our members as it becomes available.  Please feel free to stay in contact by text, email, or phone, with any or all of the Executive members mentioned above, should you have any questions or require further information.

Please take good care of yourself and your loved ones … and be safe!

David Kaplan

On behalf of the NRRPS Executive
