Parade Stadium hosts Hockey Day Minnesota 2020
Via a January 2 e-newsletter from the Minneapolis Park and Rec Board:
Hockey Day Minnesota 2020 will be held at Parade Park on January 16, 17 and 18! The 14th-annual statewide hockey celebration features two boys' and two girls' high school games, an NHL Alumni game, a State of Hockey Women's All-Star Game and a University of Minnesota women's hockey game.
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) is proud of its hockey tradition, building and maintaining 19 outdoor hockey rinks each winter, in addition to indoor rinks at Parade Ice Garden and Northeast Ice Arena. Proceeds of the event will benefit MPRB Youth Hockey and other Minneapolis youth hockey organizations, including the DinoMights, Minneapolis Storm Youth Hockey and Minneapolis Titans Youth Hockey.
