Eagle River Revitalization Program's Executive Director Karen Margelofsky​ and the nine member Board of Directors are working hard every day to make downtown Eagle River a better place, economically, aesthetically and socially. A major part of our annual budget comes from fees assessed by a statutorily-authorized Business Improvement District (BID) on all commercial properties in the City at the time of their inception in 1999. We sincerely thank these businesses, as well as, Eagle River’s Mayor and City Council for their enthusiastic ongoing support of our mission and our projects.

We welcome your interest and assistance in helping the City of Eagle River grow and prosper!

Sarah Zidek, President
