Vancouver Island Combine Racing 2008

The garden party and awards were held at the home of Doug Chadwick and Terresa on Sat. July 26th.  It was a very enjoyable and well attended event.  Dale and Judy Corry of the Capital City Racing Pigeon Club donated the trophy and Dale presented it to Auke Elzinga, pres. of the Mid Island club for 2008. Great to chat to all the fanciers and hope to continue to have many more get-to-gethers in the years to come.
