West Lindsey District Council is thrilled to announce a special competition to design a commemorative flag for its 50th anniversary celebration.
This initiative, suggested by the Chairman of the Council, Cllr Stephen Bunney aims to engage the community in celebrating this significant milestone. The winning design will be brought to life and used at a special ceremony marking the anniversary.
Anyone from across the district is invited to have a go and get involved in this unique opportunity to showcase their creativity and contribute to a lasting symbol of the council’s golden jubilee.
Cllr Stephen Bunney, Chairman of the Council said:
“We thought we would kick off the summer with a competition which is a fantastic way to involve people in commemorating this important occasion. We look forward to seeing the creativity and enthusiasm from our communities”
A designer will take the winning design and produce a special flag which will be ceremoniously raised on the Guildhall flagpole. The unveiling will take place during the Civic Service, with representatives from the winner participating in the event.
Other designs will be used and turned into special 50th anniversary bunting.
