I’d like to send a BIG thank you to Jessica Holben, Principal Chorones, and the students and staff of Fogelsville Elementary School for inviting me and my racing pigeons into your fox den on Tuesday and making our visit so special! Look at the colorful welcome we received…

Zuzu and Rocket couldn’t believe their eyes. They had never seen such colorful racing pigeons before!

We truly enjoyed the opportunity to teach you about the lifecycle of a racing pigeon and the unforgettable forgotten sport of pigeon racing. Thank you for asking so many thoughtful questions and sharing your stories with us.

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the race results!
