Grand Finale – Century Votes After The Show To Pay For Fireworks
July 8, 2015
The show’s not over until it’s over – or until the bill is paid.
Last Friday night, the towns of Century and Flomaton presented their annual fireworks show at Hurricane Park in Flomaton — a highly successful event, according to Century Mayor Freddie McCall. But a check of council minutes from this year found that the Century Town Council never formally approved funds for their share of the bill for the fireworks show.
Now, the council has officially voted to rectify the mistake and to pay $2,500 for their half of the show.
Flomaton and Century split the bill each year for the event, and they alternate hosting the show. The 2016 Century-Flomaton Fireworks Show will be at Century’s Showalter Park.

So if the Town Councils didn’t like the quality of the fireworks they wouldn’t pay for them?
Sounds like they are on top of things.
