are well below retail prices. We

alike. Have
we got NEWS for you!!!! It will be raining Bird's at
our SALE & EXPO 6 May 2012. Non-members of
BBC Club have asked on numerous occasions if they can sell birds at the sale…..but
you have had to be a Barossa Member to do so……..we have since come of age……our
sale will be an ‘open sale’ meaning all persons belonging to a “Bird Club”
will be able to register to sell their birds. The venue is the Tanunda Show
Hall, there will be a number of trade stands so the whole family can enjoy the
days outing. If Mum & the kid’s don’t have the same passion for birds as
Dad…..or vice versa…you can still come as a family as there will be other
interesting trade stands that are not bird related. As the old saying goes…when
Mum’s happy….. Dad’s happy……when the kids are happy……everyone is
happy. Our goal is to make it interesting for everyone. To our interstate
visitors, have a think about possibly spending a few days in the picturesque
Barossa Valley. We hold our Club Meeting the last Thursday of each month. You are more than welcome
to come along and meet the locals. If you decide to attend our Club Meeting…..please
give us a phone call and we can fill you in on finer details. There’s plenty
to see in the Barossa and surrounding districts with Adelaide being only a stone
throw away. All
