Neighbors in the Westwood Hills neighborhood are watching for pink plastic flamingos to tell them where to go on Friday night! Started by Mark Walter, Flamingo Fridays is meant to be a way for neighbors to spend time together and a chance to get to know your neighbors better. Mark started by putting a couple of pink, plastic flamingo yard decorations in his yard and then handed our flyers to all the neighbors. The fliers asked them to bring a chair and a drink to his driveway on Friday evening to visit with the neighbors. At the end of the night, another neighbor takes the pink flamingos and puts them in their yard so neighbors know which house to go to the following Friday!
