2010 CPFA CLASSIC SHOW

December 3rd, 4th & 5th, 2010. Winnipeg, MB.





The 2010 CPFA Classic is now in the works and we are looking forward to another great one. It will be hard to follow the success of the fantastic show in Abbotsford but we will try. This year’s show will be hosted by the Winnipeg Fancy Pigeon Association. Plans are now underway and a great lineup of judges is in the works. The Canadian National Jacobin Show will be in conjunction with this show and we are working on a district meet for the newly formed Canadian National Pouter and Cropper Combine. The English Trumpeter breeders are also working on a meet here. These are just the first specialty shows to show interest and we are hoping for many more. The location of the show will be at the race track on the main level with loads of room and access to dining and banquet areas. This is also close to the airport and hotels. We will continue to post updates as plans progress.



CPFA President,

Clint Robertson
