Warwick Regional Sport and Recreation Association.
Council is a member of the Warwick Regional Sport and Recreation Association. Through this involvement, funding is available for incorporated community groups and organisations to apply for grants. The maximum grant available is generally up to $850 for Warwick based groups and up to $750 for Stanthorpe based groups (unless otherwise specially advertised). Grants must be used to promote sport and recreation with the view to increasing knowledge and/or increasing membership to the applicant organisations. This is normally achieved through workshops, tutorials, clinics or come 'n' try events.
There are two rounds per year, called in January/February and September/October. Advertisements are placed in the local newspapers and forms are available either through the Southern Downs Regional Council website or at the Warwick and Stanthorpe Council offices.
