Fort Sutter Racing Pigeon Club
The Club was established 75 years ago in Sacramento, California
and competes with five other clubs in the Camellia City Racing
Pigeon Combine. Our current roster shows twenty-five members
including the late John Garzoli, who recently passed away. If you
read our web site page ‘Why Race Pigeons?’, you will
understand our passion for the birds and the caliber of members in
our Club. You’re right! I forgot the web site:

One member promotes the Sport even though she does not
competitively race her birds. Her name is Anna Hernandez. If you
check our web site Photos page, you will see Anna releasing fifty
white ‘homers’, one for each State in the Union, at our Annual
Fourth of July fireworks stand. Besides this annual event,
Anna’s birds get press in The Sacramento Bee for dedication
ceremonies for local heroes.
The Club is extremely progressive and much to the credit of our
President. Frank Meder strives to make the Fort Sutter Racing
Pigeon Club the finest in the Nation. Through our annual fireworks
stand and other fund raisers, our members receive state-of-the-art
clocks and electronic chip rings when competing in our OB and YB
race series. This helps make the Sport affordable to growing young
families and those we affectionately call ‘old farts’! Through
the efforts of all members, the Club will purchase a new computer
system for the latest AU WinSpeed program. Their efforts also
benefit local and State organizations.
In short, “New Members Always Welcomed! We Can Help You Find A
Local Club If You Do Not Live Near Us!” |
