Painting Day is Saturday May 5th. That is the day the town with the help of United Way and the Chamber of Commerce will paint the Front Street buildings. Volunteers are asked to help refurbish out town’s old business district.

The Chamber posted, “On Saturday, May 5, 2018, United Way of Northwest Louisiana and The Town of Coushatta need your help in the revitalization process of the historic downtown Front Street. Teams of volunteers will tackle projects like painting the lower half of the downtown buildings, planting flowers, and other beautification projects.

“To start a volunteer team of five to ten people, please submit your team form by April 27, 2018.
