In previous years, St. Augustine has won national awards for best pet, most historic, and funniest selfies. This year, the city is challenging its residents to get involved, especially in the award category for best community engagement.
“City staff have a fun time with Selfie Day, and this year, as with every year, we hope our residents will join in,” said Melissa Wissel, Communications Director. “We are inviting residents to snap a selfie in front of any of our municipal buildings, with a staff member, next to a City vehicle… get creative… We know how much everybody loves a good selfie! You never know, we just might win another award this year!”
City Hall Selfie Day was created to boost civic pride in municipal services and leadership. Participation is open to everyone, including family members, pets, or friends, and creativity is highly encouraged. The city’s facilities include City Hall, the Financial Services Center, the Fire Station, the Middleton Archaeology Center, the Police Station, the Municipal Marina, the Visitors Information Center, the Water Treatment Plant, and the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
