This is a sample project entry included so Sledge Empowerment can review the Projects & Photos layout. Real entries will use authentic photos with written permission, a two- to four-sentence description, and city- or county-level location only.
With thanks: Thank you to the neighborhood volunteers and a local hardware supplier who donated paint and materials.
