Eagles auxiliary ‘flocks’ front yards to raise money for cancer research

PINK FLAMINGOS: Money raised benefits victims in community

BY ANDREW FICKESof the Herald

Have you been flocked yet?

The Puyallup Eagles 2308 Women’s Auxiliary will be happy to “flock” your front yard through the end of Sep-tember with an arsenal of flamboyantly dressed bright pink flamingos to help sup-port cancer victims in the Puyallup Valley.

“It’s good for raising money for our auxiliary fund,” said Shireen Ainsworth, the chair-woman of the auxiliary can-cer fund. “We present a check to Partners Oncology up by the hospital.”

Throughout the year, Puy-allup Eagles 2308 holds nu-merous events to raise money for cancer treatment and re-search.

Ainsworth has been the chairwoman for three years. The Eagles raised $5,000 in one year and $6,000 the sec-ond year. Ainsworth hopes to surpass that this year.

The idea for a fundraiser associated with dressed-up flamingos has people talking

and opening up their wal-lets.

“We are having to get an-other flock of flamingos to meet demand,” said Deb An-dersen, a flocking attendant who is a member of the Ea-gles.

It was Andersen who thought of the idea to pur-chase flamingos in bulk and, at people’s request, place 24 flamingos in front yards for 24 hours. Then, homeowners call the flocking attendants to remove them. In return, they make a donation to the can-cer fund.

There are four flocking teams, Andersen said. Ain-sworth’s team is called Meet the Flockers. Andersen’s is called Team Flying Flockers.

“We wear these pink T-shirts with our team name on the front, and on the back it says flocking attendant,” An-dersen said. “Our teams have competitions between them-selves of who can be the most creative and the funniest.”

Andersen said it was first thought to have the fund-raiser open to the members of the Eagles. But soon, neighbors and community

members took notice. Now business owners are

coming forward, asking to “get flocked.”

The motto of the Fraternal Order of the Eagles is “Peo-ple Helping People.” The

Puyallup Eagles 2308 started in 1937 and has more than 3,000 members today.

we reach the summit.

fresh mountain air clears the mind.

A rare bird takes flight.

A spirit resides here that only the outdoors is big enough to contain. Where Mount Rainier appears even

closer and the forest is ever present. Here is Tehaleh, the new community in the highlands of Pierce County.

It’s a place where an excellent education is in the heart of the community. And birding, backpacking and

s’mores are all in a day’s play. Where will Tehaleh find you?
