Although this sounds pretty simple, there is a little more to it. Try going around the entire gym, trying to tape of a perfectly even line at 7'4"! Once the plan was decided on how to accomplish this task. Mr. Obar and I were ready to go to work. Mr. Obar would attach the laser level and then with precise placement the blue tape was on. 

While we got started Katie, Jitka, Adam, Jim, The Headricks, and a few others, finished prepping the lower half of the walls for paint. Hannah did an excellent job of bringing the radio and getting it set up! 

By the time we were tapping off the end of our 2nd wall, most of the painting crew had arrived. With paint, brushes and rollers in hand the crew began to apply the first coat. This was the fastest group of painters I have ever seen. While making our way down the 3rd wall with the tape, I turned around and the 1st wall was DONE, the 2nd Almost done, and the 3rd wall was already started! 

In the middle of the 3rd wall Mr. Obar had to leave so Nick jumped in to replace him and we were off again. By this time the painters were painting under our ladders! They did such a fantastic job of getting the walls painting so FAST!! 

 With the painters right on our heels Nick and I finished the taping and the painters finished right behind us. The first coat looks AMAZING! 

Tomorrow we will finish up with a second coat!
