Tourism Grants
available to LOCAL events & festivals in 2015
GREENVILLE, Ohio (September 17, 2014) – Funds are available to
non-profit organizations sponsoring special events in Darke County
through the Darke County Visitors Bureau in 2015.
Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, with primary consideration
given to applications, which: (1) attract overnight visitors; (2)
attract visitors from more than 50 miles outside of Darke County and 3)
feature new or expanded events or programs.
Interested non-profit organizations should contact the Darke County
Visitors Bureau (DCVB) immediately for consideration. All completed
application forms and support materials must be in the Darke County
Visitors Bureau office by December 1, 2014. Application packets will
then be reviewed by an independent group of citizens from all across
Darke County serving on the DCVB’s Tourism Grant Committee. All
applicants will be informed of the decision on or about January 31,
2015. Recipients are required to attend a free tourism orientation
workshop and submit a final report.
To receive a tourism grant packet, contact Deanna York at the Darke
County Visitors Bureau, (937) 548-5158 or dyork@visitdarkecounty.org.
Information can also be found on the bureau’s website on the home page
and on the ‘news and press’ page, VisitDarkeCounty.org.
