SUBJECT: Local Grant Request - Esquimalt High Scholl Athletics
INFORMATION:
At its meeting on January 29, 2024, Council approved the distribution of all budgeted 2024 local grants, which included funding of up to $2,750 for the Esquimalt High School’s athletics programs. In accordance with Council Policy FIN-19 Local Grants - Esquimalt High School, these funds are to be used to assist school athletic teams with costs related to equipment purchases and tournament travel costs.
While the allocation has already been approved by Council, the Policy requires school representatives to appear before Council to formally request the funds. An application was recently submitted by a representative from Esquimalt High School requesting the amount of $2,750 in local grant funding in 2024 to support volleyball equipment purchases and subsidize travel for students’ families.
