Flamingo Fridays Return May 13 In Northbrook

Press release from the Village of Northbrook:

April 14, 2022

Come join your fellow Northbrook neighbors for the Flamingo Friday Kickoff event, taking place behind Village Hall on Friday, May 13, from 5-7pm. Spend an evening enjoying music, food, and games or stop by to pick up your very own flamingo.

Every Friday evening between Memorial Day and Labor Day, anyone that wants to participate is invited host a flamingo party in their neighborhood. These gatherings are the perfect opportunity for residents – both new and old – to make new friends, meet new people, or just reconnect with their neighbors. Whoever volunteers to host their neighborhood’s next Flamingo Friday obtains the flamingo from the previous host or from Village Hall and displays it on their lawn a few days before the party, signaling to the neighborhood where the next Flamingo Friday event will be. The host only needs to provide the driveway or lawn space for the party. No effort needed! Everyone provides their own drinks, snacks, and chairs.

The Northbrook Community Commission is excited to continue this unique Northbrook tradition that brings our neighborhoods together in a fun and inclusive way.

If you have questions regarding the kickoff event or Flamingo Fridays in general, call Management Analyst Sam Reiss at 847-664-4015 or email sam.reiss@northbrook.il.us.
