Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "BLM WY LMO WY Dept of State Parks and Cultural Resources Kids Xtreme Fire and Ice Festival" (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00174) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Natural Resources funding activity category. It was designed to support the State of Wyoming, Department of State Parks and Cultural Resources in sponsoring its annual Kids Xtreme Fire and Ice Festival. The core purpose of the festival, as described in the announcement, is to advance the national goals of First Lady Michelle Obama's Lets Move campaign by actively engaging youth and their families in healthy, outdoor recreation as a way to help combat childhood obesity. In practical terms, the project centers on providing outdoor activities that encourage physical movement, family participation, and a positive connection to recreation and public lands.
This opportunity was narrowly targeted in terms of eligibility and award structure. Eligible applicants were limited to state governments, reflecting that the intended recipient was the State of Wyoming agency organizing the event. BLM expected to make a single award, and the total estimated funding for the opportunity was set at $5,000, with both the award ceiling and award floor fixed at $5,000. This indicates a one-time, fixed-amount support for the event rather than a range of potential awards. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
From an administrative and timing standpoint, the opportunity was posted and created on July 22, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 5, 2011, and an archive date of September 30, 2011. The CFDA number associated with the program is 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which aligns with BLM's mission in managing recreation resources and supporting public engagement with outdoor activities. The announcement also referenced an additional information link directing applicants to the "APPLICATION" tab to obtain full instructions and the application package, suggesting standard Grants.gov style submission procedures for that period.
For support or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Robert J. Tichac at BLM, reachable at 307-775-6313 and via email at roberttichac@blm.gov. Overall, the grant was a small, focused cooperative agreement intended to strengthen a specific Wyoming-based youth and family outdoor festival while tying that event to broader public health and recreation objectives through the Lets Move initiative.
