(Rapid City, SD) - The Rapid City Rush will be playing a street hockey game against the winner and friends of the Coca-Cola Coolest Kid on the Block promotion. The match up will take place in the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center parking lot on Sunday from 3 to 5 pm.
Winner of the promotion is New Underwood resident Julie Thompson who entered the drawing for her children Hunter and Kaitlyn. Thompson's name was drawn at the Rush home game on March 14. The Coolest Kid on the Block promotion took place for three months at Common Cents, Corner Pantry and Big D stores throughout the Black Hills.
