This tradition has been around for decades, and event organizer Ryan Lanning says it's the unofficial kick-off event of this week's festivities.
"It's exciting. This tradition has been going on for nearly 40 years, and it's a real honor to do this. It's a lot of fun to make our town what we want it to be for the week of St. Patrick's and give a little Irish symbolism to our town," Lanning said.
