Painting Helpers Needed!

Hello,
A big thanks to Eric Larson, Bonnie Bold, Harlan Walner and Stephanie Donelan for stepping up and helping start the clean-up and painting of our new facility.

We are working to complete the job within the next week so we can get all the permits and licensing in place so that we can move by months end and continue operations without disruption.

We have another work weekend schedule this week and need more helpers to get the job done efficiently.

Friday & Saturday we will be painting walls and could use the help of up to 6 people.
Sunday & Monday we will be painting and sealing the concrete floor. We will need only 2-3 helpers this day.

If you can help Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Monday, please call to confirm your availability.

On top of having some fun, all painting volunteers will earn a 25% discount on their next order.

Thanks,
Michael Tiner

I am in need of 2 additional helpers with strong backs Saturday morning.
We need to move our gear & furniture before the rain begins tomorrow to prepare for painting the space Sunday.
If you are able to help move stuff between 9am-12noon Saturday, please call me to confirm.

Also, we will be painting interior walls on Sunday between 10am-4pm. If you would like to help, let me know.

All volunteers will receive a 25% discount on their next order!

If you have any painting supplies you’d like to donate to the cause, bring them by the new spot Saturday or Sunday morning.

Next weekend, we will be working on staining and sealing the concrete floor and painting the exterior of the building. Helpers will also be needed.
