PAINTING

The Painting & Decorators Contractor's Association (PDCA) voted unanimously at a meeting I spoke at to take on painting all the interiors of the CASS Vista Colina Emergency Family Shelter FREE! They donated all the paint and the labor from eight different companies. (Brian, you may want to merge this with the text I already wrote about PDCA. See if it makes sense. I want the companies names listed here.) They brought out 55 guys for a full day. Roger Adams from Adams Painting, the President of the PDCA brought out his partner another day and brought Jim Sharpe from Sharpe Dry Wall to do a ton of dry wall repairs needed in all the units. Darrell May of Smith Painting is the one who invited us to talk to PDCA. He brought out his grill on the back of his truck and PDCA donated burgers for all the volunteers. Chevy's kicked in chips and salsa and rice and beans. All 30 apartments, the two-story offices and the pre-school were painted in one day!
