Prepare to see flamingos all over town Saturday, May 2 when the FHS Student Athletic Trainers will hold their annual Flamingo Day.
On that day, trainers will place flamingos in the yard of the buyer's choice along with a note that says "YOU HAVE BEEN FLAMINGOED BY........." . The recipient of the flamingos can, if they choose, send them back to the first buyer or pass them on to someone else. And so on and so on.

Each flamingo is $5 and insurance is $25. All money raised will benefit the Student Athletic Trainers and the FHS Sports Medicine Program.
