Port Angeles – Visit Port Angeles is the official tourism and marketing organization for the City of Port Angeles, and we just learned on Monday that it has designated $15,000 of lodging tax marketing dollars to fund six $2,500 grants to eligible Port Angeles-based tourism and hospitality businesses and organizations.
Use the funds for branding creation costs, such as photography. Use it for advertising and digital marketing campaigns, website design, or public relations.
The rules say all campaigns must target potential visitors located more than 50 miles from Port Angeles and should promote overnight stays.
Port Angeles-based businesses that fall under the tourism or hospitality category may apply. Applicants must be actively running a business that attracts and serves visitors coming to Port Angeles.
Go to the Visit Port Angeles Website to learn more and apply online. Applications are due by 5 p.m. on June 9. That’s only 3 weeks away.
Grant award recipients will be notified on or before June 30.
