RE: MCA DEVELOPMENT FUND

As was previously announced I am pleased to advise that the MCA Development Fund is now operational and we are now accepting applications. You will find attached a copy of the Development Fund Application Form, as well as a description of the application process and criteria, attached to this letter.

Some of the notable points of the MCA Development Fund;
„« Curling Clubs may apply for up to $10,000.00 per year
„« Curling Clubs must match all grant monies awarded on a 1 to 1 basis
„« Maximum amount to be distributed to Curling Clubs will be $50,000.00 per year
„« Grants will be considered for any project the club considers critical
„« Grants cannot be used to cover Operational Expenses
„« Application Deadline is May 1, 2008

All applications can be mailed to the MCA Development Fund c/o MCA. Applications will also be available online at the MCA website, www.curlmanitoba.org . If you require any additional information I ask that you please contact MCA Executive Director, Ian Staniloff at 925-5723.
It is our hope that all member curling clubs take the opportunity to explore ways to further the development of our sport in your community.

Regards,

Dale Brooks
