MARQUETTE -- Hundreds traveled to the Marquette National Guard Armory Saturday to stock up on some gear for outdoor summer activities.

It's the Superiorland Ski Club's annual bike and kayak swap. Long lines awaited entry. Club members were allowed in 15 minutes early. People brought in their items for sale in the morning, and if the item sold, the ski club keeps 15 percent.

The swap offered many bikes, kayaks, and everything in between.

"You name it, we have it," said Debbie Muskovitch, a board member. "If it's spring or summer, we have roller skies, we have roller blades. We have incredible deals here."

The Superiorland Ski Club also hosts a ski swap in the fall.
