2024 Tourism Enhancement Grant

Posted on March 1, 2024

The Spencer County Visitors Bureau plans to award up to $10,000 to help enhance Spencer County tourism in 2024.

The Spencer County Tourism Enhancement Grant is designed to assist organizations, businesses, events, and tourism-related entities with special projects, events, activities, marketing, and other initiatives to encourage visitation and tourism in Spencer County.

“In just the last two years, the Visitors Bureau awarded more than $146,000 to local entities through the Tourism Enhancement Grant,” says Spencer County Visitors Bureau Executive Director Melissa Arnold. “This is the third year for the Tourism Enhancement Grant, although the Visitors Bureau has offered various grants since 2015.”

Tourism Enhancement Grant Guidelines can be found at SantaClausInd.org/Tourism-Partners. Applications will be available on Monday, March 4, 2024. Grants will be awarded on a first-come basis and the Visitors Bureau board of directors will discuss submissions at monthly meetings.
