Hello everyone, I'=
m Joe
Cussick in upstate New York.
I started in the
hobby at eleven yrs old raising White Kings.
Shortly after I started with
Rollers, Tipplers and West of England Tumblers. I'll be 44 in a few d=
ays,
and I still have Rollers and West’s, but branched out a bit. I specia=
lize
in Rare Colors in Rollers and Race Homers mostly.
Yes, I'm a genet=
ic
nut! Also breeding Dewlaps (for about=
20
yrs), which are diving pigeons from the Middle =
East.
In 1992 I formed The <=
st1:place
w:st=3D"on">Hudson Valley
Pigeon Association in upstate NY having an annual all age all breed sh=
ow
early in October.
My
wife Michelle, from Nova Scotia Canada,=
is the
Secretary of the club and I am the President. It's nice to share
your hobby with your spouse. Michelle got interested in Modenas and so I got
involved and went overboard as she would tell you.
Together we specialize in Ar=
gent
Modenas. Michelle is also the
Sec./Tresurer of the Atlantic Modena Club.
In Oct 2005, I helped to org=
anize
Saddle Homers USA.
I have a son Brandon 13, and a stepdaughter Holli 20.=
I'm
an Electrician by trade and builder by blood, thanks to my dad.<=
/span>
We
usually get to 8 - 10 shows a year and I judge various breeds of pigeons.
We built a pigeon Loft
Exhibit at our local fair to promote the pigeon<=
/p>
Hobby. We are there for 5 days and nights answe=
ring
questions and taking birds out for all to hold and see up close. =
;We
also promote the birds at various Cub Scout functions. There nee=
ds
to be more of this in all areas of the country to give the public a clearer
view of our hobby.
I
am also the NPA N.Y. State Rep. We have a huge club BBQ each year in
July at our home for our local club HVPA, and it just keeps getting bi=
gger
each year. Come along and have a great time, and most of all, “Promote
your Pigeons!!!” Thank =
you.
