Many teams in the ECHL have long been committed to serving their communities. It’s a chance for fans to connect with the team, and it allows players, coaches and staff to promote hockey in a direct way.
On Wednesday, the South Carolina Stingrays held a special Community Night at the Community Resource Center (CRC). Three Stingrays players—Micah Miller, Kyler Kupka, and Reilly Webb—volunteered their time to play street hockey with local kids, sign autographs, and share their love of the game.
The event provided an unforgettable experience for children in the community while introducing them to hockey.
In addition to street hockey games, the kids were also gifted with team merchandise, creating an opportunity for young fans to connect with the players and learn more about the sport. ServiceMaster of Charleston, a Stingrays corporate partner, provided free ice cream for all attendees, making the night an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
Louis Smith, Executive Director of the Community Resource Center, highlighted the event's impact on the children and the broader community.
“This event benefits these kids for several reasons,” Smith said. “It introduces them to a new sport, it inspires them to study and look at hockey, and it also brings a cultural thing to these young kids.”

For the Stingrays players, the experience was equally rewarding. Miller reflected on the importance of connecting with local kids.
“I’d say the most fun part was just getting to know the kids,” Miller said. “A lot of them don’t know a ton about hockey, but I feel like we kind of sparked an interest for them, and they seemed to really enjoy it.”
Kupka echoed this sentiment, adding, “I loved seeing how much fun the kids had, getting outside with them, and playing some street hockey. They were loving it.”
Webb also noted the joy that the children brought to the event.
“The kids all had fun outside playing hockey, and they all had smiles on their faces,” Webb said. “That’s what I loved about it.”
The Stingrays are proud to work with local organizations like the Community Resource Center, give back to the fans who support them, and encourage a new generation of hockey fans.

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Lowcountry voters are urged to come to the polls prepared as Tuesday marks Election Day for the anticipated 2024 Presidential Election.
The South Carolina Election Commission saw record numbers during the early voting period. Over 1.47 million early voters turned out ahead of Election Day.
Voters who plan to cast their ballots Tuesday are urged to arrive at the polls prepared. The state Election Commission states campaign material is not allowed within 500 feet of the entrance to the polling place. That includes clothing, pamphlets, posters and small objects like pins or buttons.
The Charleston County Board of Voter Registration and Elections Executive Director Isaac Cramer says the unacceptable materials are for current candidates. Cramer says poll workers will remove any campaign material within the 500-foot zone.
“If you’re wearing a shirt, they’ll be like, ‘wear it inside out,’ you’ll probably go to the bathroom or back to your car…If you’re wearing a hat, we’ll probably ask you to go back to your vehicle or put that piece of literature away,” Cramer says, “We know people are passing out pamphlets, we know that you might bring a pamphlet with you but we just ask that, that will be put in your purse, put in your pocket or brought back to your vehicle.”
Cramer urges voters to preview their sample ballot before heading to the ballot box. He says looking at the sample ballot online helps with speeding up the voting process.
“The ballot will contain president, Congress, you got local elections as well as the constitutional amendment, local county questions and those will just be longer for voters to review,” Cramer says.
Election officials recommend voters to be voter-ready by knowing any poll location changes. Voters can find their location online on the state election commission website.
Charleston County voters will see permanent location changes starting Election Day. Officials say residents received change via notification cards. County board officials say the changes to better serve voters with fewer lines, quicker voter experience and more disability access.
The affected areas are:
Berkeley County voters will also see changes. Voters in Hanahan 3, 5 and Yeamans Club will vote at Hanahan High School auditorium. Hanahan 4 voters will vote in the high school gym.
County officials say voters affected by the change received notification ahead of this year’s voting period.
Polls open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Voters need a valid photo identification to enter the polls. Election officials say voters are eligible to vote as long as they are in line by 7 p.m.

SEATTLE, Nov 1 (Reuters) - Boeing (BA.N), opens new tab shares gained 3.5% on Friday on bets that the planemaker's U.S. West Coast factory workers will approve a new wage offer and end a seven-week strike that has halted jet production and hammered the company's finances.Around 33,000 machinists, who have been on strike since Sept. 13, will vote on Monday on a new contract offer raising wages by 38% over four years, up from ...
SEATTLE, Nov 1 (Reuters) - Boeing (BA.N), opens new tab shares gained 3.5% on Friday on bets that the planemaker's U.S. West Coast factory workers will approve a new wage offer and end a seven-week strike that has halted jet production and hammered the company's finances.
Around 33,000 machinists, who have been on strike since Sept. 13, will vote on Monday on a new contract offer raising wages by 38% over four years, up from a prior 35% offer.
The proposal adds a $12,000 ratification bonus but did not meet workers' demand for the restoration of a defined-benefit pension. Boeing workers rejected two previous proposals in votes on Sept. 12 and Oct. 23.
"It looks promising since it is approaching the union's original target of a 40% wage increase over four years. The fact that the strike has lasted almost two months is also a factor in favor of a deal," said Ben Tsocanos, aerospace director at S&P Global Ratings.
Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg urged workers on Friday to accept the deal, saying in a note to staff that it was time to "focus on rebuilding the business and delivering the world's best airplanes".
Workers on the picket lines were divided, with some telling Reuters they were ready to end the grueling strike and others determined to hold out the full 40% wage increase.
"It's not enough. They haven't even reached our demand," said Kenneth Vi, a 34-year-old quality inspector.
Kate McKinney, a 59-year-old who works on the 737 MAX jet, said she would be voting to accept the deal.
"I want to get back to work. Bills are what they are," McKinney told Reuters.
The strike has halted production of Boeing's best-selling 737 MAX jets as well as its 767 and 777 widebodies, leading to a $6 billion loss in the third quarter and complicating Ortberg's turnaround efforts.
Wall Street analysts have been scanning Reddit posts and social media reactions, which were a harbinger of worker sentiment in the previous two votes.
The machinists union has said it extracted everything it could from the company, while warning that future offers could be regressive.
"The proposal's economics are a material improvement for labor. Union leadership's endorsement, unlike the most recent proposal, should help further bridge the vote towards ratification," said Dino Kritikos, managing director at Fitch Ratings.
Workers have the option of putting a lump sum of $5,000 from the bonus into their 401(k) retirement account or take cash.
That option, coupled with the possibility that workers could see 20% of their salary go into retirement accounts, may sway pension hardliners, Jefferies analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu wrote in a note.
Workers have lost an average of $10,400 in wages during the strike, eclipsing the average first year pay rise under the offer, Kahyaoglu said. She said Boeing's recent capital increase puts it in a stronger negotiating position.
Its shares have fallen 8.3% since the strike began in September.

Two ballot questions up for vote in next week’s election have Charleston County residents split, with notable advocacy groups and community leaders loudly proclaiming their opposition.Charleston County is seeking to extend a half-penny sales tax previously passed in 2016 to generate $5.4 billion to pay for large-scale infrastructure projects — including the extension of Interstate 526 across Johns Island.

Two ballot questions up for vote in next week’s election have Charleston County residents split, with notable advocacy groups and community leaders loudly proclaiming their opposition.
Charleston County is seeking to extend a half-penny sales tax previously passed in 2016 to generate $5.4 billion to pay for large-scale infrastructure projects — including the extension of Interstate 526 across Johns Island. Almost half of all funds raised through the half-cent tax (about $2.3 billion) would go toward the interstate project, including more than $600 million to pay interest costs on a tax-backed loan worth $1.8 billion.
At an Oct. 15 Charleston County Council meeting, dozens of residents and local advocates spoke for roughly an hour during a special public comment period. Those who spoke against the sales tax pointed to its unclear language, the unfinished projects from the 2016 tax and grievances with the Mark Clark extension project as reasons to vote against the measure.“The county has already failed to pursue all but one of the projects from the previous sales tax,” one speaker said.
The new tax would also pay for millions of dollars of work that was supposed to be covered by the 2016 referendum. About 5% of the new tax’s revenue, or $282,223,000, would go toward “carryover projects” from the 2016 sales tax.
“Once more, we’re back where we started again,” another said. “It’s time to start from scratch.”Meanwhile, groups like Citizens for Safe Roads, a grassroots movement, support the referendum.
In its “Vote Yes” campaign, the group said: “The transportation sales tax potential distributions include billions for road improvements across Charleston County necessary to improve the safety of dangerous intersections; reduce response times for EMS, fire, police; improve hurricane evacuation routes; and reduce traffic injuries and fatalities.”
Altogether, the funds raised by the sales tax would be allocated to:
Opponents say lumping the massive Mark Clark extension project with other, crucial improvements is unfair to voters.
“Charleston County voters deserve to make informed choices when they head to the polls. They should not be forced into an all-or-nothing decision,” Coastal Conservation League Executive Director Faith Rivers James said in a statement. “Voters deserve the right to vote for preferred needed improvements — like Greenbelt and CARTA funds — without being forced to support the destructive and unnecessary Mark Clark extension as the priority project.”
Republican County Council member Larry Kobrovsky of Sullivan’s Island added that there’s no guarantee all of the projects funded by the new sales tax would be built, either, adding to the uncertainty of the measure.
“My fear is that we will jeopardize ongoing projects from the [2016] sales tax,” he told the Charleston City Paper in a previous report. “By lumping it all, we’re holding hostage all these other projects to 526.
“When people vote on this, they think the projects will be built,” he said. “This is just a fantasy. … There’s no guarantee we will have the money to finish these projects. How can we in good faith put out something that we don’t have the money for? To me, that wouldn’t be ethical or fair.”
A second question on the ballot would approve the issuance of up to $1 billion in bonds to the county payable from the new sales tax. If passed, the new sales tax would be active starting in 2027 and remain in place for no more than 25 years, or until a matching total of $5.4 billion in returning revenue has been collected.
Election Day may look a little different this year. Up to 140,000 Charleston County voters are expected to have voted before Nov. 5, according to county election officials, which will make it much smoother at the polls for same-day voters, projected to be about 80,000 people.Here is a list of all candidates in contested races who will be on Charleston Countyballots to help readers prepare to check the box when they arrive at their polling locations.
