Excerpt:
About 275 kids attended the annual Paint the Library event in honor of Independence Day.
"Ultimately it's kind of providing kids a creative outlet, something to do during the summer, and it's a patriotic event," said Bob Waterbury, who works in young adult services of the library.
According to Rachel Muchin Young, public relations manager, the Manitowoc City Center Association first started the idea of painting local business buildings red, white and blue years ago.
Ann Herrmann, youth services manager, said many downtown businesses used to have community members paint their windows, but the library is the only building still taking part in the tradition.
