For the City Times

A beloved mascot now has a name.

As the Wisconsin Rapids Riverkings hockey team enter their third year, it was time to name the mascot. At the Downtown Grand Affair, the team encouraged the community to offer their suggestions.

After a team vote, the winner is “Rowdy the Riverking”, submitted by local teacher Angie Peters.

Angie was joined by family members at the game on Saturday, Sept. 24, where she had the opportunity to drop the opening puck & was presented with a gift basket of RiverKing apparel & local gift certificates.

The Wisconsin Rapids Riverkings would like to thank Angie for her continued community support.
