Lead Slinging Classic Benefitting Westmoreland Wheelhouse

May 11, 2024 | 9am to 5pm at Westmoreland Farm

The Lead Slinging Classic (LSC) is a fundraising event for the non-profit organization Westmoreland Wheelhouse. Westmoreland Wheelhouse is a non-profit based in Huntersville, North Carolina, with the mission of forging a new way to provide caregiving, housing, and independence for adults with spinal cord injuries. Westmoreland Wheelhouse’s current objective is to obtain land to begin the building process of the living space.

Westmoreland Wheelhouse was founded by Kasey Westmoreland and Candace Small. Kasey suffered a spinal cord injury at 16 and became paralyzed from the chest down. Kasey soon realized a gap in the caregiver industry as he struggled to find reliable care and noticed obvious understaffing and underfunding. Kasey met his co-founder and friend Candace Small when she became his caregiver in 2011.

They aimed to start a non-profit that would change the industry and positively impact those with spinal cord injuries. Westmoreland Wheelhouse aims to provide six individuals with apartment-style living, designed to give adults with spinal cord injuries the independence, care, and privacy they deserve.

The Lead Slinging Classic has been held annually event since 2015. This year’s event will be held on May 11, 2024, at 13420 Westmoreland Road in Huntersville, NC. The event will consist of a 5-stand competition, silent auction, raffle items & merchandise that will benefit Westmoreland Wheelhouse.

Westmoreland Wheelhouse and LSC rely on philanthropic donations and sponsors in the community. Your donation will go directly towards Westmoreland Wheelhouse and supporting their mission.
