Tourism Commission - Jul 21, 2026
The commission awarded $67,000 in room-tax-funded promotional grants to three local events: Fat Tire Charity Ride ($7,000), Bridal Expo (up to $30,000), and Venetian Festival ($30,000). These grants help fund marketing that draws visitors and overnight stays to Lake Geneva.
