Cranston Stadium or Stebbins Field has been home to the Cranston High School East Thunderbolts for 65 years. With the installation of the artificial turf completed in September, the plans call for the Cranston East Thunderbolts insignia at one end zone , while the Cranston West Falcons at the other. Recently, a sign has been erected announcing the home of the Falcons and Thunderbolts. Cranston West has an athletic complex and playing fields located on their campus. Cranston Stadium is on the east side of the city and is home to the Thunderbolts. Cranston West Falcons should not be represented on Cranston East\'s field. If this is the case and it seems to be then at least Cranston East Thunderbolts name should have take precedence and placed first on the sign by the scoreboard. This petition will be forwarded to the Mayor.

I have heard from many of you who feel as strongly as I do about keeping our home field exclusively for the Thunderbolts. Please email the Mayor today to express your opposition to the dual branding of our stadium. Post this link on Facebook so the rest of the community understands exactly what is at stake.

The momentum behind this petition is proving that our community will not accept the erasure of our home field pride. Email the Mayor today to demand that the Thunderbolts name takes the precedence it deserves at our stadium.

Totally agree. This is our home field and the branding needs to reflect that. Respect the history of CHSE.

Grew up watching games here and it was always the Bolt house. West has their own place so why are they taking over ours now?

Ridiculous to mess with tradition like this. It is East's stadium plain and simple. Keep their branding where it belongs.

West has their own stadium so why are they forcing themselves onto ours? let the kids at East have their own identity.
