The first NFC raffle winner was Mr Ken Parkinson from Wigan. Ken is a keen long distance fancier and he was over the moon to have won such a good bird donated by Mark Gilbert.

Here is a photo of Mark's treble cock, the sire of the raffle pigeon.
The lucky ticket was sold by Eddie Froggatt at the Crewe marking station.
The raffle was well supported throughout the country and the NFC would like to thank all those who bought tickets and the members who to the time to sell them.
Remember to buy your tickets @ £5 for the next raffle at the marking stations or by post from Geoff Cooper, Dove Dale, Huddox Hill, Peasedown St John, Bath, BA2 8EA.
This is for a superb bred young bird from John Halstead.
