City sells Silver Mine Ski Hill back to Eau Claire Ski Club

Posted:

Eau Claire (WQOW) - On Tuesday, the city council approved selling the Silver Mine Ski Hill to the Eau Claire Ski Club for a dollar.

The city bought the land from the ski club for a dollar back in the 1960's when there were plans to extend Highway 37 downtown. The Eau Claire Ski Club says it now has plans to develop the property into a year-round facility.

The club says getting loans to make improvements and fundraising will be easier now that it owns the land.
