Score! Check Out The Newly Unveiled SHS Football Scoreboard

The new Stonington High School football scoreboard was unveiled Wednesday morning, a day before the century-old football rivalry matchup between the  Bears and the Westerly Bulldogs.

The new scoreboard features advertising panels from sponsors Mystic Aquarium, Lawrence & Memorial Hospital, Mystic Pizza, Connecticut Community Credit Union, South Shore Heating and Cooling, and Powell, Lathrop and Orkney Insurance.

A celebratory brunch was held this morning at SHS, which recognized the sponsors and others that worked on raising funds and seeing the scoreboard project to fruition.

The town wrote new zoning regulations to allow for the sponsor panels though an ad for the press box featuring McDonald’s was pulled after it was approved by the Board of Education but was not brought to the Planning and Zoning Commission for site plan approval.
