Hi All,

It's that time of year again where we run as Pigeons outside our usual Wednesday time slot. This year we're hoping to send a team to the Terry Fox Run again. The event is on the 15th of September and is free to enter. The run is 5km of Barry Curtis Park (The ParkRun Course) and all funds raised go towards cancer research. You can register before the run or online. The run starts at 10am. If you need more info get in touch and we'll do our best to help out.

We hope to see you there!

29/08/2024

Thank you all!

Thanks to everyone who came down this Wednesday to join us on our awesome run/walk. We love seeing you each and every week and we hope to keep seeing you going forward!

Also keep your eyes peeled over the next week as we hopefully have some big announcements to share with you all!

26/08/2024

See you tomorrow!

We're back out on course tomorrow night for another smashing edition of The Pigeon Run. We look forward to seeing lots of your faces on the start line. If you're new or someone who's considering a return, don't be shy as we're always happy to see different people every week. If you need more info let is know!

See you there!

Wednesday Night Warriors!

Huge shoutout to our select pigeons who braved the abysmal weather before our run/walk this week and still came out and crushed our course. (Despite the return headwind). In the middle of winter it means so much to everyone who helps put this on that we still have people showing up week in and week out despite the weather.

See you again next week!

No Fly Zone!

While we are calling off this week's walk/run due to the recent events at the bar, we still welcome your support. Keep an eye out on the Bars official socials St Heliers Bay Pigeon Racing Club for more info about when our favorite place to roost will be open again.

Huge thank you to all who have reached out and offered support and help, we really appreciate it.

15/07/2024

Hi all
As some of you might have seen the bar was ram raided last night with a decent amount of damage. We will update later on this week's run.

In the mean time we are just thankful that no one was hurt and our wonderful team at The Pigeon are safe

Cheers
C G and J

Wednesday Looms Large Again!

If you're ever unsure of whether to come out and try something new take inspiration from our fellow Pigeons who always find a way to have fun even as it gets colder and darker. We have prizes, good times and most importantly a bar to cosy up in every week! So if you're looking for something to do on Wednesday nights do get in touch and we'll get you up to speed!

See you all there!

28/06/2024

Another great night!

Alongside another great pose from Matt, it was another great night out with the crew from the Pigeon Run. We really appreciate the support as it gets colder outside and it's a bit tougher to get up and get moving.!

As usual we look forward to seeing you all next week!

Our streak of post run treats continued last night in the form of cake and some great returns from Pigeons who can't make it every week.
