We are located on the North Shore of Lake Ontario, 1 ½ hours east of Toronto and 1 hour west of Kingston. The area was originally settled by Empire Loyalists and is prime farmland although the urban expansion of Toronto is creeping closer each year. Our residence is a Victorian brick farm house built in 1846. Our wood lot boasts majestic oak, maple, white pine, ash and cedar. A truly spectacular setting for the lofts, our racing and breeding lofts and our Empire Classic loft.

As well as an ideal setting for your Classic birds, we offer a high degree of experience, skill and success in the management of racing pigeons. Our credentials and successes as racing fanciers and organizers of special events are well known across Canada and beyond. We traditionally have very few losses with our own racing team when others are experiencing heavy losses, a huge benefit for anyone entering our Empire Classic One Loft race.

We hope to make our EMPIRE CLASSIC WEEKEND a special occasion, not only for the winners but also for everyone attending. It will be a golden opportunity to meet old friends, develop new friendships, watch some birds race home and enjoy our complimentary meals and refreshments.

We are proud of our track record in managing the Empire Classic. In 2006 70% of the total number of entries were shipped to the Empire Classic 350. In 2007 a whopping 82% of the total number of entries were shipped to the Empire Classic 350.  In 2008 66% of the total entries were shipped to the Empire Classic 350. In 2009 65% of the total entries were shipped to the Empire Classic 350. This is a 71% average over four years.  Compare these numbers to any other large One Loft Races. Also compare our prize payouts compared to our entry costs to any other large One Loft Races. You will not find a better "bang for your buck". We do not take a percentage of pools or prize money.  The detailed prize payouts are posted prior to the arrival of the birds. You can calculate your prize and pool winnings without waiting to see what we send you. Training tosses, races etc  are posted on our web site.  We have video cameras inside the loft and outside the loft for your viewing pleasure, you can view your birds, on our web site, from the moment they arrive in April or May until they come home from the Empire Classic 350 and Empire Marathon 420. We also keep you informed with our Empire Classic "DIARY". Regular updates, news and Classic information is posted on the "DIARY" throughout the year. Check out our "DIARY" from time to time, starting now.
