PAINT SOUTH DAKOTA PROJECT
Pictures of the “Paint SD” house that we did in Murdo. The first/last picture is of the house before we started the project. The middle pictures are of various volunteers working on the house. The last picture is the house upon completion of the project! (Click on the captions for description of picture)
The Murdo Chamber of Commerce spearheaded the “Paint South Dakota” project by helping community members fill out applications. The home of Claude and Betty Baker was chosen from the applicants and the paint was ordered. We did have a bit of struggle finding the time and volunteers to begin scraping, taping windows and putting on a coat of primer and paint but we were able to complete the project before the final “extended” date of August 15th and finished the house the first weekend of August!! Thank you to ALL the volunteers for your hard work on completing this project. A special “Thank You” goes out to Lori W. for everything she did to help make this project a success!

Wow…it looks like your group tackled a big project with this house. We painted a house in Letcher in June through the Paint SD program too. This was the 4th year that the Letcher Community Club has painted a house. It is great to see the improvement and the homeowners are so thankful for the help. I think Paint SD is a wonderful program.
