Consideration shall be given to new and expanding projects, festivals, sports tournaments, conventions, cultural arts and special events benefiting Grant County and the region. This is a competitive application, based on limited resource dollars and the size of the grant award is capped at $2,500.00, per application cycle. The grants are reviewed bi-annually by the Tourism Resource Committee at the direction of the Grant County Board of Supervisors.  Organizations interested in receiving funding from the Grant County Tourism and Resource Committee (TRC) must apply for funding.
