What is the Mounds View Irondale Hockey Foundation?

The Mounds View Irondale Hockey Foundation is the public name for the Lake Region Hockey Association (LRHA), which was the original youth hockey association for players in the communities of Arden Hills, Mounds View, New Brighton, North Oaks, Shoreview, and surrounding areas. In 1993, Irondale and Mounds View created their own youth hockey programs to align with their respective high school boundaries. LRHA stayed in existence in order to run the pull-tab and gaming operations and support Irondale Youth Hockey, Mounds View Youth Hockey and other youth sports programs. In 2014, Irondale and Mounds View joined forces once again branding itself as Mounds View Irondale Hockey Association. Mounds View Irondale Hockey Foundation (legally LRHA) remains a separate but related entity.

The board consists of no greater than 15 members with no fewer than five members representing either Irondale or Mounds View. The board meets monthly and the meetings are public and posted on this website.

Why partner with the Mounds View Irondale Hockey Foundation?

For establishments with the capacity to host pulltabs, bingo, meat raffles, or other charitable gaming, partnering with MVIHF is a great opportunity. Working with our organization has several advantages:

Very few charitable gaming fundraising partners can offer all of the above. Choosing MVIHF as your charitable gaming partner can be very beneficial for your business via increase traffic and sales. For establishments who already host charitable gaming, switching to MVIHF is a great idea and should be the last switch you make!
