Reminder – The Young Bird General meeting of the Up North Combine will be held Sunday July 21 at 10:00 am in the meeting room at the Royal Canadian Legion 115 Back St., Bradford Ont.

Young bird flying fees must be paid at this meeting. The cost is $175.00 for the C series and $175.00 for the D series for those who did not get the All Series package at the beginning of the year.

Please complete the official form – listing your clubs’ young bird flyers including which series that they are flying in. The form along with a club cheque for the flying fees is to be submitted to Peter Kamstra.

Although already paid, please include the members that purchased the all series package as we don’t want to miss those numbers when allocating baskets.

Basket allocation for each club will be based on the numbers given at this meeting so please have your lists prepared. Also, any applications and membership fees for new members will be voted on at this meeting.

The forms and applications are found on our website.

Hope to see you at the meeting.

Birds were released in Rupert River at 6:15 am into Partly sunny skies with 8 km/h SW winds. Good luck to all participants from all 4 combines.

Shipping will be tonight for the A11 Rupert River race. Check back Saturday for release updates.

Hi all,

This weekend is already our last old bird race. This is a joint release with ECC, EOC, NRRPA and UNC on the small UNC trailer. The other combines will probably need 16 crates, this leaves the UNC with 40. There are 50 crates allocated in the A series but this being the last race I’m sure there is plenty of room. 

So we ask that each club use a minimum of crates, certainly don’t crowd your crates but also don’t put 3 or 4 birds per crate. Please have between 8 & 15 birds per crate so we can accommodate everyone and not have too many birds per crate either.

Thank you,

Oscar & Linda DeVries
