Painting the Pool Interior

Volunteers needed

Our pool is getting a fresh coat of paint—in several yummy colors—and we need volunteers to help us paint. Here’s the scoop:
August 15, Saturday afternoon: clean the walls and etch (to prep for Sunday painting)
August 16, Sunday: paint, paint, paint

Ray at Peninsula Paint on Viking Ave is donating all the materials. He got Benjamin Moore to donate their top-of-the-line paint. Connie LaMont, interior designer and well-known colorist, has selected the colors. Best of all, Mike Dale of Big Valley Painting is the pro who will supervise all of us (and do the tricky spots). Mike has worked on “Extreme Makeover: Home Improvement” so this is a small project for him.

We need LOTS of people. Come dressed in cool, paint-worthy clothing—remember it’s toasty in the pool area. Only a small portion of the painting requires a ladder—you’ll be on solid ground for all your work.

Contact Jake at 598-1070 or email him above. He’ll have details for you. And thanks—I’ll see you there!



PS—Please pass this along to anyone else you think might be willing to help.
