Bates College students and cross country team members Jack Crum, left, Dan Maass, center, and Evan Skufr paint a light post Tuesday morning on Lisbon Street in Lewiston. They were joined by other athletes from the men’s and women’s teams who painted walls, railings and lamp posts from Main Street to Adams Avenue. The effort was part of the college’s Harward Center for Community Partnerships. Lewiston Public Works employees directed the students on Main Street and at Mike McGraw Park on Bartlett Street where they did landscaping and other projects. Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal
