BACKGROUND: 

On August 17, 2021, the Board of County Commissioners established the 1 October Memorial Donation Fund. These donations are maintained solely for donations received and any expenses related to the establishment, development, construction, and maintenance of the 1 October Memorial. 

On September 20, 2023, the Board approved a grant resolution with the Country Strong Project, a non-profit organization to assist with the Remember Music Festival ("Event") held on October 1, 2022.  Country Strong Project is donating the net proceeds of $35,000 from the Event to the County and the County is requesting the Board to authorize an allocation of $50,000 to the Clark County Arts Fund to support the 1 October Memorial Fund.
