Today I announced that 68 local sport and recreation groups will share in more than $2 million in funding from the 2012 Sport and Recreation Grants Program (SRGP).
Over the last five years I have announced more than $11 million of SRGP funding to organisations which are focused on increasing participation opportunities in a wide variety of sport and recreational activities.
I am pleased to announce the three successful community organisations who will share in almost $20,000 in funding through the second round of the 2011-12 ACT Festival Fund.
The annual ACT Festival Fund program supports festivals that encourages community participation and add to the cultural life of Canberra.
