===Handke Stadium===
Also known as the Elkhi Stadium, it started its construction in 1921. It became a playing field for football and hockey rink in the winter. In 1939 workers built steps, stone retaining walls and a warming house with a fireplace. After a couple years, the Handke Stadium began to deteriorate and had to be shut down.{{Citation needed|date=April 2023}} The Elk River Rotary Club fundraised enough money that in 2000 they repaired the stadium. New warming house, wiring and the steps and stone have either been replaced or repaired. Since being newly reconstructed it had been included into the National Register of Historic Places.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Maxwell|first=Robert|title=Handke Stadium|url=https://www.elkrivermnrotary.org/stories/handke-stadium|url-status=live|website=Elk River Rotary|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160209192030/http://elkrivermnrotary.org/Stories/handke-stadium |archive-date=February 9, 2016}}</ref>
