A 1950s diner took over Gulf Atlantic Bank’s Lake Placid branch for Halloween, and this was no ordinary decorating job.
The branch was participating in Gulf Atlantic Bank’s Halloween Battle of the Branches, a competition involving every branch, with bank executives judging the entries. The Lake Placid team started planning in August. The result was a complete transformation, with every inch of the bank decorated to fit the 1950s diner theme. Food-themed displays, creative props and real treats brought everything together.
And the fun wasn’t limited to the bank employees. Customers joined in, bringing their own 1950s-era cars and helping create props for the display, making this much more than just a decorating contest – a reminder of small town business being part of the community.
