CSHL was heartbroken over the sudden loss of our great friend Kyle Wheeler.  Wheelz was extremely passionate about hockey and the CSHL.   He was always the first person on the rink, and the last person off.  He skated harder than anyone in the crew.  We are blessed to have come across such a sweet and loving young man.  Kyle was determined to carry out our goal of building an outdoor rink in the local community, and was an essential piece in accomplishing that goal. 

 

Kyle realized that the Hara Arena hockey boards were sitting up in Dayton, Ohio waiting to be demolished.  He drove up with a bub to survey the situation.  While most of us thought this idea was a long shot, Wheelz knew that we had the man power and determination to extract the boards.  We called the demo company and negotiated a way to get the boards out.  The company told us we had two days to get them before the place was getting leveled.  Two days, four trailers, and 30+ bubs.  Now we reap the benefits of Kyle's innovative actions.  (insert picture of Barb Cook Park Rink)

 

The Wheeler family has asked for donations to create a #4 memorial at the rink, and we intend to do something very special.  We are incredibly grateful for this gesture, and we hope that you can donate to this honorable cause.

​

We love you Wheelz, and we'll remember you forever!
