2021 Cattaraugus County Tourism Promotion Grant Extends Deadline
2021 Cattaraugus County Tourism Promotion Grant Extends Deadline
LITTLE VALLEY, NY - The Cattaraugus County Department of Economic Development, Planning and Tourism (EDPT) will continue accepting applications for the 2021 Cattaraugus County Group B Tourism Promotion Grant Program through March 31, 2021 in an effort to further help local businesses and event organizers. EDPT feels this extension is necessary to allow for local decision makers to analyze the status of Covid-19 and make more definitive plans for their events and their advertising dollars.
A portion of the bed tax is intended to provide grants for advertising and promoting various new or expanded tourism events, unique festivals, attractions and experiences that will attract more visitors for extended stays, overnight visits and day getaways. This grant program seeks to establish the importance of programs and opportunities that promote or support the development of specific themes or significant attractions and events, all of which enhance the level of visitor experience in the area.
Eligible applicants include Chambers without full-time staff, business associations, non-profit organizations, events, festivals and other tourism associated activities. Any eligible grantee will partner and coordinate with the EDPT.
