Orange City, Iowa ? Orange City is among seven Iowa towns vying to be among the ?Prettiest Painted Places in America.?
The national contest is helping people across the country to discover what Iowa residents have long known: The Hawkeye State has some of the most beautiful towns and neighborhoods to be found anywhere.
Sponsored by the Paint Quality Institute, whose mission is to educate the public about quality paints and coatings, the ?Prettiest Painted Places? competition has drawn seven entries from Iowa. The nominees are Orange City, Adams County, Albia, Decorah, Greater Des Moines, Grinnell, and Pella.
Over the next few weeks, the seven Iowa communities will vie with nearly 200 nominees from other states for regional and national honors, as judges with expertise in color selection, exterior painting, and home improvement review the entries, conduct additional research and make selected site visits. Finalists will be announced soon, and the nation?s 12 ?Prettiest Painted Places? will be revealed in mid-October.
