Paint, Paint, Paint....Thank you!!!

The inside of the main hall has a new facelift thanks to a few local people that put their talent, time, and hard work into completing the task. Last fall the Swiss Board Members started discussing ideas of painting the inside main hall. With the vision and leadership of Tami Fluke along with the help of Amber Kaech, Lisa Clements, Kim Cook, and Ben Burgi her vision became a reality. This was quite the endeavor and took many hours to complete. They have replaced the lower half of the hall with new materials and new paint from floor to ceiling. Huge thanks to everyone that helped with this project. It looks great and will be enjoyed by many who attend not only the Swiss events but also the number of other rentals we have throughout the year.
