SIMULATION CLOCKING OF TAGKAWAYAN RACE

CRPA officers and members have started their first clocking on the OLR birds arrived from Tagkawayan, Quezon on January 23, 2010. Due to the bad weather in the area, the birds were released at 8:30am. First group of six birds arrived at around 11:10am. There are eleven of us including the Organizer Joseph Yap witnessing the first sample clocking of the race. We all have so much fun watching the birds arriving in groups or individually.

Some adjustments outside the loft, as well as the trap doors will be made. It was also the first time for the birds to be locked in the trap doors. Hopefully, the birds will feel more comfortable seeing people around in the succeeding races.

Huge turn-out of participants are expected on March 6, 2010. Thus, the Organizer and the BODs are now preparing for the big event. New set of rules for 2011 races will also be published soon!
