Woodlawn Park is where Wesley found his love of Baseball!

On April 16, 2005, at the Woodlawn Little League Park, the Senior Boys Baseball field was dedicated to Wesley Brandon Smith. The day was proclaimed "Wesley Smith Day" by the City of Clarksville, Mayor Don Trotter, and Woodlawn Little League.

"This field, this game, it's a part of our past"

Wesley's love for Clarksville Academy was only deepened by his love for sports.

Wesley dreamed of a sports field for his school...

We wanted to make Wesley's dream come true... He often talked about his school having their own fields.  We have been blessed by other parks allowing us the use of their facilities, but it wasn't the same.  Several years we use Woodlawn Park as our home field.  This made Wesley happy because he held very fond memories of that park.  The first year Wesley played baseball was the first year Woodlawn had a Little League.  Wesley helped lay the sod on the major and minor fields. That is where he found his love for baseball! He was the first to get a hit on the field, and the first to score a run. There are signs that bear his name along with his teammates.

 Wesley dreamed of a field that he and his fellow Clarksville Academy high school Cougar teammates could call home.

So, here we are left behind wanting
to make his dream come true.

Thank you, Lord, for all the great memories.
Please keep Wesley alive in our hearts until we see him again...
