Tourism grant applications are now being accepted

Carbon County Office of Tourism will be accepting grant applications until 5:00 p.m. on November 30, 2017. If you have an event in 2018 and you would like to apply for grant funding through our office, please visit castlecountry.com, click on Community Links, and fill out the application and return as soon as possible.
Please use the application form to request use of Carbon County tourism tax funds. Tourism fund taxes are derived from what is commonly known at the restaurant tax, as set forth in Utah Code Annotate (U.C.A.) 59-12-603. The purpose of the restaurant tax funds is to finance tourism promotion, and to finance the development, operation and maintenance of airports, convention, cultural, recreational, and tourist facilities.
For applicants holding events in 2018 that may promote tourism, funding will most likely be in the form of advertising or promotions that highlight the event together with other tourism opportunities in Carbon County.
Applications are approved by the County Commission, after the County Tourism Tax Advisory Board reviews your application and the Director of Tourism makes recommendations to the Commission.
