"Smurfs"
For as long as anyone here can remember, kids have trudged up the mountain to tend to the large white letter C that stands for Crane High School. They call it C-Day and it's a ritual before the homecoming football game. Freshmen, of course, haul the paint, seniors bark instructions and everybody contributes to the annual tradition. But in the end, it's the freshmen who get doused in smurf-blue paint.
