Once upon a time, where the Mississippi River sparkles under the icy winter sun, lies the state of Minnesota. Known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes," it is also the kingdom of a cool, imaginary character named Chilly the Chipmunk, a master of puck maneuvering and ice glide. Imagine a chipmunk, but not just any chipmunk. Chilly is a hockey-playing, ice-skating whiz, with fur as white as the snow-covered landscape, and cheeks as rosy as the apples hanging from the state's plentiful apple trees. In the heart of this frosty and fun-filled state, you'll find kids with hockey sticks as their swords and hockey pucks as their shields, battling it out on the ice, just like Chilly. They skate like the wind, swooshing and whooshing, leaving a flurry of snowflakes in their wake. And when they score a goal, they roar louder than the biggest winter storm. These kids are a curious and courageous bunch, just like their hero, Chilly. They don't mind the chilly winds that would make a polar bear shiver. No, sir! They're as tough as the walleye that swim against the current in the Mississippi. They're as determined as the timberwolves, the state's basketball team, going for the win. And above all, they're as playful and sporty as Chilly the Chipmunk himself, always ready for a game of hockey, come snow or high blizzard. These Minnesota kids and their imaginary friend, Chilly the Chipmunk, transform the state's frozen ponds into their grand hockey arenas, filling the frigid air with laughter, cheers, and dreams of hoisting the Stanley Cup.
