The Naracoorte Poultry & Pigeon Club held their Championship Show at the Naracoorte Showgrounds on Sunday 24th, with 200 pens displaying the finest of local ducks, chickens and pigeons. The club reported it was a pleasure to host Judge Brendan Lloyd from Victoria who awarded Champion Bird of Show to L. Barber.

The unexpected sunshine was a bonus and the club were pleased to see members of the public in attendance and enjoying the show.

Their next event will be held in conjunction with the Naracoorte Show and the club welcomes anyone wishing to join them and show their own poultry. An extra special welcome is extended to any pigeon owners, with Secretary Leah Pilgrim stating they would certainly make room for more pigeon people.

The club extends their gratitude for the prizes generously donated by Mini Jumbuck, Hage Tractors, Nutrien ag Naracoorte, Drew’s Workshop Supplies, Shearing World, B.K Hebberman, Naracoorte Pumps and Electrical, Betta Electrical Naracoorte, ASI Outdoors, A. Lock, L. Pilgrim and D. Hewett.
