Arkadelphia OB race, June 14 canceled (300 mi)

Due to a lack of flyers (only two lofts showed up), the 300 mile race scheduled for June 14 was canceled.

Columbia OB race, June 7, 2009 (200 mi.)

RESULTS: The birds were released at 8:00 AM into clear skies and no wind at a temperature of 62  degrees.  At home the skies were clear, SW wind at 6 mph and 82 degrees. There were only 42 birds from 3 lofts.  Not a legitimate race since there were not five competing lofts; but it was still fun and good experience for the birds.
