Graduation Venue for Class of 2026

VENUE ALERT! BIG NEWS FOR THE CLASS OF 2026! 🎓

We've got an important, and exciting update about the Class of 2026 Graduation Ceremony!

We are thrilled to announce that we are partnering with the River's Edge Convention Center, located on the western banks of the beautiful Mississippi River in the heart of downtown St. Cloud, for the Class of 2026 Graduation Ceremony!

A Change for a GRAND Event!

While we originally planned to use the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center, the facility will be undergoing a major, essential construction project beginning in March 2026 and continuing through October 1, 2026.

This vital closure is necessary to address critical infrastructure upgrades, including a complete overhaul of their aging refrigeration plant, which is essential to maintaining consistent and reliable ice quality.

The good news? We are looking forward to partnering with the wonderful team at the River's Edge Convention Center to make the Class of 2026 Graduation Ceremony an amazing, memorable event!
