We are here for YOU!

The Eagle River Revitalization Program wants to take a moment to welcome you to our vibrant community. We hope that this has been an exceptional year for you and your family!

Our organization prides itself in making Eagle River a unique and memorable city that allows you to easily create exceptional memories and experiences to share with others.  As you may know, we are a non-profit, volunteer driven, organization. There is always something to be done and the commitment of our Board of Directors and our volunteers to the Eagle River community is never ending. We strive to make our community attractive and inviting for all. As a result, we have received countless positive comments about many of our programs and projects, such as: our Flags & Flowers program, the Artscape banners, decorative bicycles greacing the depot gardens, public benches, Farmer’s Market, year-round seasonal decorations throughout town, free Wifi downtown for our visitors and residents to use, our murals, our parks and playgrounds, and the patriotic lights display as you come into town.

We also work to attract new entrepreneurs and support our existing businesses with programs such as our Building Improvement Grants and Sign Grants, and in 2021-2022 the promotion of the WEDC’s $10K Bounceback Grant for businesses that open up in a vacant space. This year we also funded and installed Phase 1 of the Playground Equipment at Riverview Park and have ordered Phase 2 to be installed in the spring of 2023.  We are campaigning for funds for Phase 3 to be installed in the Spring of 2023 as well. We have redesigned our website to showcase the City of Eagle River and to highlight other resources available to our community.  Our committees are working hard on introducing more programs that will make our small city even more unique in 2023.

However, we can only initiate programs and projects. It takes people and businesses like you to make them happen. Your monetary contribution helps to make our city special to all of those who call this home and to those that just love to visit. We would greatly appreciate receiving any donation to help reinforce our initiatives.

Thanks to your support and that of other Eagle River businesses we are able to constantly move forward making both physical and economic improvements in the community. 

Your suggestions on how we can best meet the needs of the community are always welcomed and greatly appreciated. If you know a business that we could help with façade improvements, free design assistance, a sign grant, free business assistance, or in any other way, please do not hesitate to recommend our services to them.

Sincerely,

The Eagle River Revitalization Board of Directors and

Executive Director, Karen Margelofsky
