Investing in The Ralph's Future

• Behind the scenes, we’re completing a significant investment in the long-term future of Ralph Engelstad Arena with a new roof project designed to protect one of the region’s premier sports and entertainment venues for years to come. While much of the work has already happened above the heads of our fans, the impact reaches everyone who walks through our doors. This investment helps protect the facility, enhance long-term reliability and ensure The Ralph remains a great home for UND hockey, special events and the entire UND community for generations to come. Other off-season capital improvement projects include new hockey locker room upgrades and new concourse bathroom entry digital displays.
