Painting the town blue
Georgia Southern, community celebrate relationship
W 090915 PAINT TOWN BLUE 01
Guests at the Paint the Town Blue Kickoff Luncheon at the Spring Hill Suites Wednesday sign a poster to support the Blue Mile initiative in downtown Statesboro.
Community leaders and Georgia Southern University officials came together to break bread and celebrate the town-and-gown relationship between Statesboro and the university at the Paint the Town Blue Kickoff luncheon at the Southern Hospitality Conference Center at Springhill Suites. The luncheon was just one of a full schedule of events being held as part of the second annual spirit week. Businesses around the community began decking out their window displays with Georgia Southern-inspired artwork and all the blue decorations they could muster as part of the True Blue Spirit Competition.
