Publisher's Note: WAYMER--Hundreds of sharpshooters in and around this rural community are cleaning their shotguns as they look forward to Saturday's 63rd annual Pigeon Day. Beginning at around 8 a.m., participants who have paid a fee will each have the chance to shoot at ten to twenty pigeons as they are released from boxes.
