We are in receipt of your acknowledgement of the plight of your Pink Flamingos.   Although we are agreeable with your concerns, the tardiness of your response has led to the potential loss of one of your flock.  Pinky has already been auctioned into indentured servitude as an ornament in an old-age park in Florida.   However, all is not lost.  We remain in good standing with the broker of southeast lawn ornament brokerage and feel comfortable with our ability to negotiate her safe return.  Therefore, if our conditions are met, we feel fairly comfortable with her safe return.
Her present contractors require that you seek her out utilizing various clues that they will provide.  Pictures of her location will be emailed to you on regular intervals until you complete the assigned breakfast task.  You will recognize her by her black blindfold. Please understand that we are committed to fulfilling our obligations and look forward to her safe return.
 
Please look at the location of your original drop off…

We have received your ransom note and demands for the safe return of our flock. Although your note required a response by 9pm EST, we were busy nesting with our back-to-schoolers and so did not discover the missing flock until after this time. We hope that you will consider our response within a reasonable timeframe.
 
Of course, the Girl Scouts of Auburn would be delighted to have breakfast with the Auburn Fire Department (and not just because of your current possessions!). Please let us know the date and time that is most convenient for you, dear kidnappers.
 
And our deepest thanks for leaving the ransom note! At first we thought our flock had taken flight for good – they are known to fly almost 400 miles in one night when they are up for the journey.
 
 
We look forward to hearing from you,
Girl Scouts of Auburn
 
 
PS – Do you also happen to have our “Flock Your Friends” sign? It has flown the coop as well!
