April 2012 was the first time Safe Space held the Flamingo Flocking event. Flamingo Flocking in Butte was a great success in 2012, bringing in enough donations to help purchase a much needed new boiler for the shelter.
Residents and businesses of the community donate a $20 requested financial contribution to have a friend or family member's yard "flocked with flamingos". The flamingo's land in the yard, then 24 hours later, move on to another location. At the end of the "flocking season", Safe Space hosts a "Flock Party", free admission to the communities we serve, with food and entertainment for those who wish to participate.
Be prepared for a bigger and better event this year with excellent items for our live, silent and Dutch auctions, live music, and a lot of fun!
DONATING TO THE FLOCK PARTY If you are a business owner, artist of any craft, or just someone who wants to donate to the cause, we are currently accepting donations for the auctions to be held at the Flock Party, as well as for any drawings/door prizes we may hold. Financial contributions for this event will be used to "sponsor" items/baskets/packages for the auctions. If this is something you are interested in, please contact our Shelter Manager, Sabrina White by clicking here. Check out our sponsors and supporters so far this year (below)... It's exciting to see this list continue to grow!
As always, any of our staff is available to answer any other questions you may have about our events. You can reach us by calling 406-782-9807.
