Hey everyone, I don't post as often as I used to, but wanted to share a little bit of what's happening in my local roller hockey league in WNC. I moved here from Florida in 2006, and have been in the league since 2009. To reiterate, it's roller but also the only hockey we have in town since ice went away in 2010.
Anyhow, to keep this somewhat brief, our outdoor rink was wrecked due to flooding from Hurricane Helene. One of our board members connected us to the Carolina Hurricanes and it looks like there might be light at the end of the tunnel. We're on the western part of the state, roughly 4 hours from Raleigh, so our relevancy was rarely at play with any NHL team in regards to growing hockey.
I'm sharing a presser where one of our other board members presented our story.
Presser: Hurricanes Donate to Asheville Hockey League
