This is a fundraiser by St. Frances Cabrini / St. Martin Youth Group! This flocking is done in good spirits and is not meant to be mean. These flamingos will roost on the lawn for one day when they will mysteriously migrate to another victim’s lawn. If you have someone special in mind, we’d be happy to migrate our birds to their house! Need protection from these furry friends? We offer insurance too! Find your favorite CYO Member throughout the month of May to join in on the fun! Thank you for your sense of humor & your support. For more information Contact: Amanda Tremblay

The Office will be closed Holy Thursday the 17th thru Easter Monday the 21st. You may leave a message or email that will be returned on Tuesday the 22nd.
