Teams of determined volunteers spread out across the River Bend in efforts to make its communities more beautiful this Saturday for the 29th Annual Bucket Brigade Paint Day.

Created by Dale Neudecker in 1988, the Bucket Brigade program aims to help neighbors beautify their homes when their owners cannot take on the jobs themselves or afford the materials and labor to do so.
