Grants???

[snappy]

Everyone keep there eyes open for grants from vendors they use or if they see something, please post up!
I applied for one from Rugged Ridge this morning and they are currently reviewing it. The best part is they had already heard of our issue and need so word is getting out!!

I'll keep a look out. I'm going to put in for the tread lightly grant here soon. Just hadn't got around to it.

Good job on the application Snappy!

That's awesome!
I was searching for grants and found a webpage called grant watch.
They had a expired grant on there for ohv safety and trail conservation.

Snappy you are on the ball my freind!! It is just amazing how much progress has been made in the forest with your cordination efforts. I thank you for your dedication, I know it isnt easy.

@ Snappy - that's amazing and I too would like to commend you for your dedication and efforts, it's very much appreciated!

I was juggling too much to get one of the smaller Tread Lightly grant applications submitted by the March 31 deadline, but would like to get this submitted by this next June 1 deadline - let me know if there's something I can target for this, I get the feeling a specific project might have a better chance of getting more awarded than a more generic request.

p.s: I'm not sure if this avenue has been explored, but it seems as though some vendors/manufacturers have grant programs - here's one for example:

I'll do some additional hunting around, if you need any assistance preparing grant applications feel free to let me know!
