As most of you now know, the Vikings will be hosting the Bears on Monday Night Football and the game will be played at TCF Bank Stadium. The University needs volunteers to help remove all of the snow. Here is the info...

The University of Minnesota has released information for volunteers interested in helping with snow removal at TCF Bank Stadium in preparation for Monday night's Vikings-Bears game.

Volunteers will be accepted at 8 a.m., Noon and 4 p.m. beginning Thursday. Volunteer help will be accepted at those times on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. No volunteer help is being requested or accepted for Wednesday. Volunteers should gather outside the Lincoln County entrance to TCF Bank Stadium at the times listed above.

Volunteers must be 18 years of age and are encouraged to wear proper outdoor attire. Shovels will be provided, but volunteers are welcome to bring their own shovel if they wish.

So grab your shovels, put on your snow pants and get over to TCF to help shovel. This is a rare opportunity and it should be a unique event for the U of Minnesota.
