Paint the Town Red
regional development

The 2008 Paint the Town Red Programs are under way! Come by our offices at 115 E Washington to pick up an application for either our renovation, free paint, or demolition programs. The guidlines for the 2008 renovation program have changed so please make sure to read the rules carefully!

Are you a member of a local service organization or church group that would be interested in a community service project to assist a local community member with an exterior project to their home such as painting, fixing a porch, building a handicap ramp or cleaning up a yard? If you are willing to do the work, we are willing to pay for the supplies! Please contact our offices at 641-342-2944. We look forward to working with you.
