Let Us Play Protest In Ellsworth Cut Short [PHOTOS]

Ellsworth High School students and parents peacefully protested Friday night, September 4th displaying Let Us Play messages using cups on fences at Ellsworth High School facilities.

Ellsworth Police acting on a complaint, met with the students and parents and asked them to remove the cups, which the group did

According to one of the parents there, the police responding were respectful, and "loved on" the kids, creating a supportive atmosphere  while they finished their protest, allowing photos to be taken before the cups were removed.

Cups at Ellsworth High School have a long tradition. Messages are often spelled out in support of soccer teams at Del Luce Stadium. When the Relay for Life has been held at Del Luce Stadium messages have been written with cups. This past Spring cups were used to spell out We Love Our Seniors.
