The correct name of the co-sponsor is Ward's Feed Store. They are located in Kingsport at 230 Revere Street and have co-sponsored this event since it was started about 4 years ago. The Bristol Bird Club also participated in their annual birdseed sale in 2005 and 2006. Ward's has been in business since the 1940's. Allen Ward, who runs Ward's today is the grandson of the founder, J.E. Ward. In keeping with the times, Wards has a website at www.wards*feed**store*.com. There is also an interesting article about Wards at Jeff Flemings blog at http://jefffleming.blogspot.com/2006/05/downtown-kingsport-store-featured-in.html. Check it out.
