Grants

Unexpected, but exciting opportunities sometimes arise outside of the planned grant cycle.  
 Opportunity grant applications are for those truly unexpected opportunities such as natural phenomena like the ice caves or an unexpected guest lecturer or performer traveling through the area.   Opportunity Grants are available throughout the year, depending on available funds.
