Let me introduce myself, my name is Wendy Lorenz. I am the mom of Sherilann Lorenz, who
went to school at Cleve Hill from Kindergarten to and including her sophomore year. Sherilannwas involved in volleyball, cross country, basketball and track. She was also supposed to be
on the student council and a freshman mentor in her junior year. In the summer after her
sophomore year, Sherilann had a job as lifeguard at Cheektowaga pools. On July 30, 2018 shewent to Burger King for lunch and on her way back to the pool, while riding her bike, she was
struck by a car on Union Rd near the 33 on ramp. On August 1, she died of her injuries. She wasjust 16 years old. For this reason, I began the bicycle rodeo in hopes that no other family
would have to endure the pain as we have.
Sherilann’s Bicycle Rodeo is a FREE bicycle safety course for children who attend Cleveland
hill elementary and middle school. The purpose of the Bicycle Rodeo is a hands-on event to
teach children bicycle safety.
