EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — The Eugene School Board voted Wednesday to sell, lease or trade historic Civic Stadium.

The Register-Guard reports the YMCA and the group Save Civic Stadium are seeking to take over the 72-year-old ballpark.

The YMCA plans to redevelop the 10-acre property with a new community center and sports fields. The Save Civic Stadium group hopes to make it a home for professional soccer, entertainment and community recreation.
