The 2009 Boating Safety Grants
application period is now closed.
The
Foundation awards local volunteer organizations up
to $4,000 for the promotion of boating safety education.
Over the past 20 years the Foundation has awarded
over $800,000 to local community organizations, yacht
clubs, flotillas and squadrons. The Foundation is
looking for creative and innovative projects that
promote safe boating on your local waterway. Topics
can range from literature on the effects of boating
under the influence to signs at boat ramps telling
users about free vessel safety checks.
