HELENA – Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is accepting applications for the Recreational Trails Program (RTP) from November 1 to January 15.
RTP grants can fund the construction or maintenance of motorized and non-motorized trails or trail-related facilities, the purchase of trail equipment, and the development of trail education or ethics programs. This federally funded program awards approximately $1.5 million annually
Applicants may request up to $100,000 with a 20 percent required match. Grant applicants can be federal, tribal, state, county, or municipal agencies (including school districts), and private corporations, including nonprofits. An organization can submit only one grant application per grant cycle.
A webinar training and a question-and-answer session will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 7, at 9 a.m. This session is highly recommended for new and returning applicants. The training will provide helpful information on program requirements and tips on writing a competitive application and using the grant management software. Interested parties must register for the free training to receive a meeting link.
