Additional fundraisers
The DI teams will once again be holding a flamingo flocking fundraiser, which allow residents to send a flock of pink flamingos to land on an unsuspecting Lynnfield resident’s lawn for the night.
Additionally, the DI teams are having a raffle, with the grand prize being a VIP Boston Red Sox package. The package includes front row Dugout Seats, a tour of Fenway Park, on-field batting practice, free parking across the street from Fenway Park, a scoreboard message and access to the Wheels Up clubhouse.
