Dear Bird Talk, Gerry (Brissenden, CSA Past-President) gave a presentation to our coffee hour folks at Sunnybreeze Christian Fellowship yesterday near Arcadia, Florida. Just over 200 listened with appreciation (half-Canadian and half-American audience).

Dear Bird Talk, I am writing to inform you (I have mentioned it on the phone as well) that I am NOT happy regarding the places you are having these meetings or shows. We live in the Niagara area and the nearest one to us this year is Guelph, which is about an hour-and-a-half away […]

Dear Bird Talk, Just a brief comment on the chosen sites for your Lifestyle Presentations. May I suggest that in the future, you might consider the Niagara area?

Dear bird talk, I could not let this year’s Canada Day celebrations, spent here at Horseshoe Cove R.V. Resort, pass without letting you all know just how much all us Canadian residents in this park appreciated yet another visit from Gerry & Joan Brissenden. Last year was our first visit from them and we all […]

Dear Bird Talk, We think there should be a charge for non-members at the Extravaganzas. We went to the one in Lakeland. There were so many people we could not enjoy ourselves. One or two dollars would help all the good work you try to do. We know sponsors pay for some of the cost […]

Dear Bird Talk, I would like to hear from anyone snowbirding in the Sarasota FL area. I would like to start up a Canadian Club. If you are interested, please email me at dorianregd@hotmail.com.
