The Fox Cities Convention & Visitors Bureau recently provided $70,000 in grants to support five kayak rental stations in the Fox Valley.
The five tourism development grants went to kayak stations at Fritse Park in Fox Crossing, Telulah Park in Appleton, Sunset Park in Kimberly, Black Otter Lake in Hortonville, and Herb & Dolly Smith Park and Doty Parks in Neenah.
The FCCVB Tourism Development Grant program accepts applications for the development of attractions, amenities and experiences in the Fox Cities, as well as impactful traveling exhibits and certain types of signage. All projects must be expected to generate hotel room nights or enhance the visitor experience.
