In addition, all students will receive official Playoffs Rally Towels. The date of the pep rally will be Wednesday, April 11, 2018 OR Thursday, April, 12, 2018, depending on the team's playoff schedule. Date and time will be determined by the Minnesota Wild.
One school in greater Minnesota will win a 2017-18 team-autographed Minnesota Wild jersey to display in their school or community.
