Yes, formerly Old Town Indians, changed sometime in the last ten years.

Still, the gym has this huge, beautiful painting of nearby Penobscot Nation with the caption "Old Town Indians." And, the name of the island home of the Penobscot Nation remains, "Indian Island." I worked a playoff soccer game last month that featured Indian Island Middle School (Warriors).

The lack of verbal parallelism never ceases to baffle me.
