eauclairebridgeEAU CLAIRE, WI - In the most recent issue of Time Magazine, Eau Claire is included in the “240 Reasons to Celebrate America Right Now” cover story. The article, written by former UW-Eau Claire student and longtime Time Magazine contributor Steve Koepp highlights the impact that music has had on the area as well as the investment in local development.

dana_wachsRep. Dana Wachs (D-Eau Claire) expressed his appreciation for the article and to the leaders in the community who have remained dedicated to the growth and economic development of Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley.

“The commitment that local leaders and the Eau Claire community have shown in growing our city culturally and economically is impressive," said Wachs. "To be recognized by a publication as esteemed as Time Magazine proves that this commitment is not going unnoticed. This is yet another reminder of why Eau Claire is such a special place to live, and I am proud to represent my hometown and be a part of this process."

Eau Claire is a perfect example of what economic development should look like. By implementing public/private partnerships such as the Confluence Arts Center, Eau Claire has encouraged development in Downtown Eau Claire that will create jobs, attract new businesses, and have a positive economic impact on the area for decades to come.
