In honor of the city of Bunnell’s centennial, fire hydrants throughout the city were given a festive face lift through the fire hydrant painting contest. The winners of the contest and the locations of the winning hydrants are: first place, Palm Coast Historical Society — “Old Brick Road,” E. Moody Blvd., in front of Bachman’s; second place, Linda’s Salon, Atlantis Business Center; and third place, Flagler County School Board, Government Services Building.

Because of the overwhelming community response in regard to the contest, the city has decided to extend the fire hydrant painting through the rest of the centennial year. If interested, visit www.bunnellcity.us and download the application. Send registration form and $25 fee to Judi Stetson at the city of Bunnell. The city will approve hydrant design and coordinate available hydrants for participation.

“This is a chance for you to leave a lasting impression in Bunnell,” Stetson said.
