Teaming Up With the Rails to Trails Conservancy
Get Grant Ready Goes National
Recently, Outdoor Community Partners brought our Get Grant Ready workshop to the national stage. At the Rails to Trails TrailNation Summit in Cleveland Ohio, we helped 20 organizations build proposals that establish trails and recreational areas for communities across the country.
Over the course of a 6 hour intensive workshop, we coached each organization to turn their ideas into a comprehensive presentation, focusing on their project impact, budget, and deliverables timeline. At the conclusion of the event, participants presented their concepts to Rails to Trails judges, and one successful project was awarded $10,000 to launch their initiative.
We were thrilled to facilitate this event, helping guide projects that will support outdoor recreational opportunities across the country. In total, the TrailNation Summit convened over 400 participants representing 40 states–an inspiring group to be apart of.
Get Grant Ready is an annual workshop hosted by Outdoor Community Partners and the Heart of the Rockies Initiative.
