BOULDER — Seven members of the Rainbow Family were arrested Thursday after police caught them sleeping on the roof of the Boulder Public Library.
A custodian spotted the campers on top of the library at 1001 Arapahoe Ave. at 6:10 a.m. and called police. The seven were asleep in sleeping bags, with their belongings scattered around and two small dogs with them, said Boulder police spokeswoman Sarah Huntley.
The men and women told officers they were members of the Rainbow Family — a loose-knit band of hippies that preaches love, tolerance and peace and holds gatherings every July — and that they were passing through Boulder.
