Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR/WA Finding Fremont Travelling Exhibit opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00272) is a Bureau of Land Management grant from the Oregon/Washington BLM offices focused on public interpretation and recreation resource management in the Lakeview District of Oregon. The project centers on John C. Fremonts 1843 government-sponsored exploration and mapping expedition through what are now parts of Oregon, Nevada, and California. The main goal is to create a traveling exhibit that helps the public understand where Fremont camped, what the expedition did, and why it mattered in the larger story of western exploration and settlement. The exhibit is expected to use artifacts associated with Fremont and to highlight specific campsites, making the history tangible for visitors rather than purely text-based.
In addition to the exhibit itself, the announcement notes a possible companion product: a Back Country Byway self-guided tour brochure that would identify Fremonts expedition route across present-day BLM-managed lands. That brochure concept suggests an emphasis on connecting historical interpretation to outdoor recreation, encouraging visitors to follow the route (or portions of it) and understand the landscape through the lens of the expedition. Overall, the work fits under the Natural Resources funding activity category, specifically tied to Recreation Resource Management (CFDA 15.225).
This is a discretionary funding opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates the agency expects to have an active role during project development or delivery compared to a standard grant. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $5,000. The award ceiling is $5,000 and the award floor is $1, meaning the project scope should be scaled realistically to a small, targeted interpretive deliverable. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, which reduces barriers for smaller organizations or partners with limited budgets.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of applicant unless additional eligibility details in the full announcement narrow it further. The posting date and creation date were August 12, 2010, with an application closing date of August 31, 2010, and the opportunity was archived on August 12, 2011. Applicants needing access to the full announcement were directed to Grants.gov, and questions about electronic access could be addressed to Walter Ullrey, Grants Specialist, at 503-808-6230 or wullrey@blm.gov.
