County of Granville issued the following announcement on Dec. 5.
The application period will close on January 31, 2023, at 3:00 p.m.
Granville County’s Parks, Greenways, and Recreation Programming Funds are used to facilitate the development and support of active and passive recreation and leisure activities for Granville County residents. The objective is to make these activities available to as many residents as possible, and to include a broad spectrum of participants, especially in areas of the county that are underserved by recreational opportunities (such as the southeastern portion of the county) or have not received prior funding. Recreation programming should seek to serve all age groups. The Granville County Parks, Greenways, and Recreation Advisory Committee Bylaws prohibit discrimination in the use of funds.
The grant application is available at the Granville County website or by hard copy from the Granville County Planning Department’s Office in Oxford. All applications must be submitted by Jan. 31, 2023, by 3 p.m. Applications should be submitted by email to justin.jorgensen@granvillecounty.org, or in person/by mail to the Granville County Planning Department, 122 Williamsboro Street, P.O. Box 877, Oxford NC, 27565.
Applicants must be a government entity or a non-profit organization. While those interested in applying for these funds do not have to be a registered 501c-3, it is encouraged.
Submitted requests may not exceed $25,000.
