Pacific Flyway Decoy Associations
Annual Wildlife Art Festival 
Doubletree Hotel across from Arden Faire Mall

Saturday, July 15th & Sunday, July 16th
This is a public event

If you've never attended this event, we hope that you were able to make it and see some of the most amazing artwork.  PFDA celebrates and features the oldest artwork in the United States - carving.  Carving ducks is where it all began but the carvings have expanded to songbirds, fish and our favorite of course...Birds of Prey.  These masterpieces are hand carved and painted.  The carvings aren't the only draw for this event; you can learn how to carve, you can admire and purchase other unique photography and artwork.  Of course we were there too, with ALL of our bird ambassadors.  Other than our Annual Fundraiser, this is the only event that we feature all our birds at one time.  Come out and support these fantastic artists, you will not be disappointed.

This will be our first visit to Great Valley Elementary School as they are celebrating "Ag Day".  This was an annual event prior to COVID and this will be the first celebration since things started opening back up.  We are super excited to be a part of this celebration as Birds of Prey are often seen in the fields, there's plenty of available food for them to hunt.  Barn Owls will lay their eggs in between the hay bales if the bales stay out in the field for too long.  We will spend a better part of the day meeting all the students.

Turner Annual Charity Golf Tournament
Friday, September 23rd
This is a private event

We are looking forward to meeting all the wonderful people who participate in this annual event for Turner Construction - Sacramento Office.  It is a four person scramble (play the best ball) full day of fun!  People that represent companies who work with Turner on their many projects in the Sacramento Region; builders, suppliers, architects, engineers and just a bunch of folks that love to have fun.  This event is one that is looked forward to every year by all involved.  This year, the "theme" is Safari.  While none of our Bird Ambassadors can be seen if on a Safari, the animal theme fits us quite well.  We will be assigned a station at one of the holes at Morgan Creek Golf Club.  This will be a great way to reach out to people we've not met before and share our mission with them.

Pacific Flyway Decoy Association
50th Anniversary Celebration

Saturday, July 18, 10:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.
Sunday, July 19, 10:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Double Tree Hotel, Sacramento (near Arden Fair Mall).  This is a public event

We are so honored to be a part of this wonderful organizations' celebration of America's oldest 
art form.  For years, these very talented wood artists exclusively carved decoys for duck hunters.  In recent years some have dabbled in carving raptors, tropical and freshwater fish!  This is a fantastic event where carvers from all over the country submit their best work.  A few years ago a talented local carver spent over a year working on a full scale Red-tailed Hawk - it was AMAZING!   The following year, an Osprey emerging from the water with a fish in its talons won Best of Show.  Our Bird Ambassadors often end of modeling for cameras the carvers bring; guess there's nothing like looking at the real thing versus looking at a photo of a raptor.  In addition, there are other artists and nature loving vendors that attend this celebration.  Hope that you make it one or to both of the days, you will not be disappointed.
