The fall (November) Ski Swap and spring (April) Bike/Kayak Swap are Superiorland Ski Club fundraisers for our youth ski programs and equipment closet.   Sellers can make space in the garage and give their equipment opportunities for new adventures.  Buyers find affordable silent sports equipment.

Both sales are open to everyone.  Membership is not required either to sell or buy, but members do get early admission to the sales.  In the past, inventory has also included items from our local sports shops.

The 2024 Bike & Kayak Swap is happening Saturday, April 20 at Lakeview Arena in Marquette.  It’s the swap in Marquette County for cycling

and paddling gear – bikes, kayaks, canoes, racks, wheels, paddles and all the related gear. Come out to the 2024 swap for every kind of on wheels or water “silent sport” gear – either to drop off your things to sell or to find something to make your summer outside faster or easier or more fun (and maybe all three!).

The club benefits from a 20% commission charged to the seller for items priced at $499 or less, and a 10% commission for $500 or higher items.

If it doesn’t sell, you’ll get it back to play with again.

VERY IMPORTANT:  Buyers pay with cash or checks written to the seller or sellers.  Bring multiple checks if there’s any possibility you may purchase multiple items!  Sellers should bring cash or a check to pay the Club’s commission when they collect their gear and earnings.

The 2023 Ski Swap was held Saturday, November 18 at the Marquette Township Community Room in the Town Hall.  This is the event Marquette County Nordic skiers come to for pre-loved skis, boots, poles, clothes, tools, racks and more.

Plan to come out to the 2024 swap in November for everything and anything winter “silent sport” gear – either to drop off your things to sell or to find something new-to-you for snow-season.
