Get ready to paint the town PINK! 🦩✨

Looking for a hilarious way to surprise your friends, family, or neighbors while supporting an amazing cause? RIPE is officially launching our Flamingo Flocking Fundraiser!

For a small donation, you can deploy a fabulous flock of bright pink plastic flamingos to take over someone’s front yard for 2-4 days! It’s the ultimate harmless prank, a fantastic surprise, and so much fun to watch unfold!

🦩 How It Works:

1. Choose Your Target: Pick a friend, family member, or neighbor who deserves a pink surprise.

2. Select Your Flock Size: From a small gathering to a full-on pink takeover!

3. We Do the Rest: Our top-secret flamingo crew will migrate the flock into their yard under the cover of darkness.

4. Flock removal: Did you get flocked? Ask us about our "Flock Removal" to clean up your flock early!!

📍 Ready to flock someone?

Please see the flyer below for pricing, order deadlines, and all the details on how to schedule your flocking!

Let's make this fundraiser un-be-livable! 🙌💖

Florida 2027 Update!

Thank you for those of you who have turned your first Florida 2027 Payment in! Due to many circumstances, we will extend the First Payment Deadline to May 13th. This is for a few reasons.

-- May 13th is our first FJRIM Booster Meeting with ALL families, including incoming freshmen families.

-- We will have a notary at our May 13th meeting so that Florida Contracts can be finalized and turned in!

-- Second Payments will still be due by June 3, 2026, then the remaining payment schedule should stay as is.

Thank you for your flexibility with this!
