Pigeon Race Opens in Stratford Bridgeport Circuit
The Stratford and Bridgeport pigeon fanciers launched the 100 mile race season with birds shipped to Trenton NJ and back home to Stratford and Bridgeport. The first birds clocked in within two and a half hours, with Joseph Caro's bird at 64 Willard Street taking top honors as Anthony's loft led the field. Upcoming events include a 150 mile race from Wilmington Delaware and a 200 mile race from Perrville Morvii, with substantial cash prizes for top finishers and continued activity across the regional homing pigeon clubs.
