Sioux Falls Stampede News Release


Sioux Falls, SD- The Sioux Falls Stampede today unveiled a special 10th Anniversary logo that will be incorporated into the 2008-09 season. The new design features the Stampede's secondary logo in front of a gold and black Roman Numeral "X" which stands for the Stampede's 10th season in the United States Hockey League. The logo will be seen on the Sioux Falls Arena ice surface and among others, on a commemorative

replica jersey from the first season that will be unveiled Opening Night and used throughout the season (and raffled off for charity at the end of the playing season).

The logo was designed and created by HenkinSchultz Communications Arts of Sioux Falls, the exclusive advertising, marketing and public relations agency for the Stampede.

"It's been an exciting ride with so many incredible memories as we proudly celebrate an historical milestone for our franchise," said Stampede President Jim Loria. "We salute the one-million plus fans that have supported the Stampede, our business partners and most importantly, our proud alumni members-their families and our local Sioux Falls' player hosted families."

"The Sioux Falls area is lucky to have such a great selection of professional and high-end sports teams to follow. We're proud of being associated with the sporting market. It's fun, entertaining and great for the area," said Joe Henkin, Partner of HenkinSchultz Communication Arts.

Since the first puck was dropped in 1999, the Stampede have gone on to compile a career record of 290-205-40 and have produced 125 college hockey players and 24 NHL Draft Picks. During the span, the Stampede have captured the Anderson Cup for the regular season best record (2005-06) and a Clark Cup Championship (2006-07) as the USHL playoff champion. The Herd have been recognized as the USHL's Organization of the Year twice (2002 & 2006) and were chosen as the only sports franchise in the history of the South Dakota Chamber of Commerce to be nominated for the prestigious APEX award (honoring business excellence).
