The city of Stockbridge is hoping to use Valentine's Day to do a little branding of the south metro community.

Through Friday, residents are encouraged to stop by Cit Hall and take a selfie of themselves at a photo station set up in the lobby of the building, 4640 North Henry Boulevard.

For those who snap a pick, the city asks that you tag the city on social media with #Stockbridge100. The city, which turns 100 years old this summer, will share the images with others in the public.

“Stockbridge is 100 years strong and we want to commemorate this year with memorable activities and events,” the city said in a statement. “It’s the perfect time to love on the city of Stockbridge.”
