WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg Convention and Visitors Bureau Board has revised the current grant program to offer flexibility for event organizers and to continue the mission of the grant by adding application deadlines and revising the eligibility criteria to allow 501c6 and 501c3 nonprofit organizations to apply.
Application deadlines for the WCVB’s grant program are now March 27, May 28 and July 31 with the May and July deadlines subject to fund availability.
The program was established to provide start-up funding to nonprofits hosting area events, programs and sporting events. To be eligible for the grant, the event must promote the development and growth of overnight tourism in Warrensburg.
The WCVB has awarded more than $30,000 in grant funding since 2015.
