SARTELL -- A hockey arena in Sartell will soon begin some much needed renovations .

Bernick's Arena was awarded a $100,000 matching grant with the help of the State's Mighty Duck fund.

The city applied for the grant back in September to help fund the much needed improvements to the facility.

Bernick's Arena plans to use the money for elevator and upgraded bleacher systems, additional locker room and shower areas, a water softener and RO system, R22 refrigerant replacement, monitoring system and compressor drives.

The total cost for the renovations is estimated at $400,000.

Both Sartell and Bernick's will each match the $100,000 grant to help with the funding.
