Cherokee County Tourism Grant

Application Period Open September 15,2024 – October 15,2024

The Cherokee County Tourism Development Authority (TDA) has been a vital community sponsor for events, trails, festivals, and various other projects aimed to draw tourism and locals alike for several years now. While the TDA has never sought recognition or gain, aside from drawing in additional tourism to the area, the TDA board felt it was important to highlight the positive and immense impact tourism and the TDA have on our local economy. This concept brought to light the “Cherokee County Tourism Grant”, a grant designed to focus on “increasing awareness of the Cherokee County Tourism Development Authority and the positive economic drive tourism creates within our Community.”, examples of concepts that would apply to this grant could be anything from an outdoor music event space to assisting in the development of a new hiking trail. If you feel that your project or concept aligns with our Grant Mission Statement listed below, please carefully complete the application. We look forward to reading through your ideas to promote tourism in Cherokee County and possibly working with you or your organization in the future. Good Luck!
