2022 “Community Impact Grant” Recipient – Germantown Park District

The goal of the Clinton County Farm Bureau’s 2^nd annual “Community Impact Grant” program was to create partnerships with other groups and organizations for projects that would improve our communities.  For 2022, the Clinton County Farm Bureau awarded a total of $5,000 to six (6) groups to assist with these types of community projects.  This edition’s featured recipient is the Germantown Park District.

The Germantown Park District was awarded $1,000 to help replace their Lake Park playground equipment.  Project volunteers used funds from this grant, and many other fundraisers and community donations, to update the 30-year-old playground equipment as part of an over $67,000 improvement project.

2022 was the 2^nd year for the Clinton County Farm Bureau’s “Community Impact Grant Program”.  The grant program had a great response this year, receiving seven (7) applications that requested over $17,000 in funding.  With a total of $5,000 budgeted for the program, the Farm Bureau could only fund portions of many of the projects that were awarded this year.  In the program’s inaugural year (2021), the Clinton County Farm Bureau awarded a total of $1,950 in Community Grants to two organizations.
