Please plan to have your birds ready for delivery during this time period. Contact Rick Fyfe (905-329-5139) to arrange delivery to the loft or for airport pick-up.
Breeders may arrange to have their birds picked up at the loft following the race. Unclaimed birds will become the property of the Niagara Peninsula One Loft Race if pick-up arrangements have not been finalized by TBA.

Both races are designated as two-day races. The race will close once all the prizes have been won, or one half hour after sunset on day two, which ever comes first.
