PITTSBURG, Kan. — Area residents have the opportunity this year to not only Paint The Town Red, but to design their own T-shirt, with a chance that their design will be selected as the official shirt for the annual celebration of Pittsburg State University pride before the first home football game in September. The Pittsburg Area Chamber of Commerce and local photography company Mpix announced the launch this week of the first-ever Paint The Town Red T-shirt design contest. Paint The Town Red T-shirts have been available in the past, but they have been designed by the Chamber, according to Chamber Membership and Special Events Director Julie Reams.
