It's Flock-tober with the Cedar Grove Cub Scouts!!

Pack 2 Cub Scouts fundraiser kicking off again.

The are back for another season of flocking... and they need friendly yards to land!

Cedar Grove Pack 2 Cub Scouts are conducting the successful and popular fundraiser again this year. Now through Nov. 15, “flocks” of pink, plastic flamingos will migrate to various Cedar Grove properties.

Find out what's happening in Verona-Cedar Grovewith free, real-time updates from Patch.

Varying sizes of “Flocks” can be requested to randomly land on a friend's or neighbor’s front yard.  The birds will appear after dark and stay for approximately 2 days before mysteriously moving on to the next “victim”.  However, unlike geese and deer, our birds are very quiet, do not feed on your plantings and do not leave any “special” packages.  A note will accompany the birds indicating who requested the destination of the flock… and just in case, reciprocation is wanted, contact information will be provided.

There is the opportunity to purchase flamingo repellant that insures that the flock will never land on your property, no matter how many or number of times it has been requested.
