I had wee 10 page books designed for children based on pigeon racing... Was just simple basic ways how to get birds/loft and the idea behind racing with the rubber ring and clock Got Jennifer to take into Craig's School along with his blackpool trophies and rossettes to have a wee talk in his class. Heard it went down well but I still feel its hard to get new blood from outside unless there is a family member of the children involved in pigeons at present time. I must admit it would have been highly unlikely I'd have ever thought about pigeons if not for my father having them in Garden Someone mentioned about the retired people out there looking for hobbies. Its getting the them and the children that we lack and surely we small measures (Like giving school talks) that could help. I remember going into school with pigeons when 9 years old and whole school took interest in them, We then let them go in school yard for all to see them let out and fly home Never hear of that now!! and if it still goes on then needs promoted better
