Questions about Pageant of Pigeons


I am hoping to make it down to the Pageant in San Bernardino this year, and I wondered if anyone knows about the show schedule. I can't figure out the info I need from the LAPC website... If I can only go on Saturday, is there still going to be plenty to see?

Thanks for your help!

OK, thanks! I'm flying in to visit family on Thursday and Friday, so I probably can only do Saturday -- I'll definitely plan to be there early. Do people start removing their birds prior to the last day? And do you happen to have an idea how late on Saturday it stays open? Will there be vendors/booths in addition to the show pens? Sorry for the silly questions, but this is the first pigeon-specific show I've been to and I'm not sure what to expect!

SWASEY, No, birds can not be removed until 4 :PM people can seart packing their birds at 3:30 pm so get there at 8am and I would say that you have time to see a lot of birds. What breed of birds are you most intrested in?I will be showing AMERICAN SHOW RACERS, ITALIAN OWLS,and SADDLS HOMERS. Hope to meet you GEORGE

Perfect! Yes, I hope I can meet you - good luck with the birds you are showing. I currently have a few pairs each of WOE tumblers, Birmingham rollers, and white homers but I've never met a pigeon I didn't like!

Where's your artwork going to be, Becky? I'll be sure to go find it if I know where to look. The Pageant is a BIG place.

So .. Let's Get Organized Now ..


Hey, folks .. let's try to figure out a way for those of us from Pigeon-Talk who are attending the Pageant to try and meet up. I will only be able to go for one day, but I know others will be there for the whole show. I was thinking we could bug Rena and ask her to be the keeper of who from Pigeon-Talk is there and where they are, but I know she is/will be super busy and that probably isn't fair to her. Anybody got thoughts/ideas?

Terry,

I'll answer this one as Becky won't know where it will be. We are having a show of pigeon art by contemporary artists this year as well as a section for artists under 18. It will be in the center of the building. They usually set up right about there. A friend and myself are co-ordinating the show this year.

Didn't we decide on some kind of badge a couple of years ago so we could recognize who is from PT? We are going to have to design a Pigeon Talk T-shirt one of these days.

I will be there all three days.

I'm going to be there for at least part of the Pageant. Look forward to meeting some of you. Look for the short, balding (but charming , somewhat chunky guy *(hey I'm working at losing it).
