Boulder Valley, Northern Colorado tourism groups win grant funding
DENVER — The Colorado Tourism office recently awarded nearly $40,000 in grant funding to support tourism efforts and designated-marketing organizations in Greeley, Longmont, Boulder, Estes Park, Loveland and Fort Collins.
“By encouraging travelers to explore our region’s outdoor assets as well as the hundreds of specialty and locally owned shops and services, together we are supporting small business owners and adding to the economic strength of Colorado’s tourism economy,” Visit Longmont CEO Sarah Leonard said in a news release.
To be eligible for this CTO grant, local groups must show a 2-1 funding match.
