Sports Supporters Meet at Comedy Connection on Wednesday

A meeting for community members concerned with the budget commission's recent decision to stop funding the East Providence School district's middle school sports programs, was rescheduled to Wednesday, Feb. 22, according to the Supporters of East Providence Middle School Athletics Facebook page. It will be held at 7 p.m. in the Comedy Connection.

The venue was changed to a bigger space due to the estimated turnout. 

"Remember this is about saving our kids middle school sports and not our personal issues with the city and its officials," writes Donnie Senna on the Facebook page. "The goal is to formulate good ideas moving forward and not turn this into an heated argument."
