Get Ready for July 10, 2010!

6/13/2010 1:07:47 PM

Despite the rain, we had a great turnout yesterday! Thank you to everyone for coming.  Unfortunately, the rain did ultimately change our plans. So instead, we got the after-party started a little early (under the semi-dry cover of some tents!) and decided on a rain date: SATURDAY, JULY 10, 2010! See all you painters in three weeks!

Something to Drink?

6/9/2010 9:44:22 AM

Paint the Town team leads and side leads tend to be rather aggressive water pushers in an effort to keep volunteers from getting all dehydrated and crispy in the hot June sun. Over the years, this has meant a lot of water bottles we’ve recycled or, regrettably, thrown away at the end of the day. All that’s [...]

How did you first hear of PTT? In February of 2009, I received a yellow flyer in the mail asking for Price Hill residents interested in being part of the Paint the Town experience.
