Perched atop the Middleton Lawn & Pest Control brand mark, the Middleton Frog masqueraded as Prince Charming (and received a kiss on the cheek from his fairytale princess) as the featured art display of the 2007 Flagler County Art League’s Art in the Park event in Palm Coast, Fla. this past weekend (Saturday, March 17 through Sunday, March 18, 2007). Using 15-tons of sand, “World Champion” Team Sandtastic created the larger-than-life sand sculpture to commemorate the company’s 55th anniversary and their sponsorship of the yearly weekend art festival.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Middleton Pest Control Inc., a subsidiary of Fort Lauderdale-based Sunair Services Corporation, reaffirmed its commitment to the arts by sponsoring the Flagler County Art League’s Art in the Park outdoor festival this past weekend (Saturday, March 17 through Sunday, March 18, 2007). Using 15 tons of sand, “World Champion” Team Sandtastic created the larger-than-life sand display, which featured a fairytale princess sweetly kissing a crowned frog while perched upon the Middleton brand mark.

“Throughout the year, as Middleton celebrates 55 years of service excellence to our communities, we continue to support organizations and causes that matter to the children and families in Florida; and contributing to the arts and other creative activities that strengthen the minds of our youth is part of our corporate DNA,” said Greg Clendenin, chief executive officer of Middleton Lawn & Pest Control. “We were excited to see the whimsical representation of our Middleton frog and the joy it brought to spectators.”
