Oregon Parks and Recreation Offers ATV Grant Writing Workshops

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) will hold a series of ATV grant writing workshops throughout the state in September and October. The closest workshop to Oregon's North Coast will be the session in Salem on Tuesday, September 25th.  During the workshops, ATV staff will demonstrate a new on-line grant application system and review the grant process. Workshop attendees will create an on-line account for upcoming grant application programs.

Please bring a laptop with wi-fi access and a current or recent grant to use as a reference for creating the on-line account. A 30-minute lunch break is scheduled. Please bring a brown bag lunch.
