WalMart gets a makeover

Trion’s Walmart store is getting a makeover. The exterior paint job will give the building the standard Walmart gray and blue colors instead of the beige color.

The job is usually a quick 5-day process performed by a contract crew, however, due to the prolific rain in Chattooga County recently, a crew just departed after seven days on the job without even reaching the halfway point. The new crew has been here four days and is making better progress and should be done before Wednesday. Mother Nature permitting.
