The Village of Waunakee is now accepting grant applications for the 2017 Tourism and Community Betterment Fund grant program. This program is established by the Village of Waunakee intended to fund Tourism Projects (projects or events that will bring visitors to the Village of Waunakee) or Betterment Projects (projects that will improve the quality of life for the residents of the Village).

Applicants must use any approved funding to promote tourism and economic activities within the Village of Waunakee. Examples of previously funded events include Girls on the Run, Waunakee Wayfinding Signage, Imagination Celebration and Depot Days.
