This program aims to support activities or projects that promote Arts, Culture &amp; Heritage, Community Growth &amp; Development,  Environment\/Sustainability, Health &amp; Well-being, or Recreation.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited about the new Community Grant Program,\u201d said Mayor Terry Glover. \u201cFor  many years, the Township has supported activities for young people through the Youth  Fund, but this new program has a broader mandate. Now we can help our community  organizations continue the great work they do in offering more diverse programs that make Lake of Bays a fantastic place to live, work and visit.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new program has three streams to offer more flexibility and an efficient  application process. The sponsorship stream offers up to $500 for community  events or regional special events. For small  projects or new ideas with short timelines, the fast-track stream will support up to $1,000 per project. And for new or larger projects, the start-up\/growth stream offers up to $5,000. Applications for the start-up\/growth stream will occur each fall for activities taking place in the following calendar year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Requests for support through the sponsorship  and fast-track streams will be accepted throughout the year (beginning in 2022) subject  to availability of funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Council allotted $10,000 for the new program, subject to final approval of the 2022 budget, and the program will be reviewed annually to determine if  the amount meets demand.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Staff have also considered the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and designed the  program to encourage both in-person and virtual projects as organizations continue to  adapt to these changes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Township of Lake of Bays believes that community organizations play an essential role in strengthening our community, and looks forward to supporting their efforts in enhancing the quality of life for Lake of Bays residents and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The start-up\/Growth stream is accepting applications from October 1 to November 15, 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For information about the program and to apply, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/lakeofbays.on.ca\/communitygrants\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>lakeofbays.on.ca\/communitygrants<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Approved by Council on September 14, the new Community Grant Program was developed to replace the Youth Fund.
