Dear Mr. Norman:
The American Revolution Bicentennial Commission has a Matching Grants
Program for states. It will provide limited funding to State Bicentennial
Commissions or projects of non-profit organizations officially endorsed
or recognized by a state Bicentennial Commission for purpose of grant
support.
Projects or programs applying for these funds must produce evidence of
cash available to match available federal funds of at least fifty
percent.
If your project is interested in applying for matching funds up to a
maximum of $10,000, please reply in writing requesting consideration
and indicating the availability of necessary dollars, not services.
Please indicate the parts of your project that are to be considered.
A reply prior to March 7 will be necessary, as the next IARBC meeting
will be March 8. Please address your communication to IARBC, State House,
Des Moines, Iowa 50319.
Cordially yours,
ourray

Dear Mr. Wittenberg:
Thank you for the Five Flags presentations which you
sent us. We will certainly be glad to arrange for as
many showings as possible of your excellent slide and
sound presentation. Should we have any suggestions from
time to time we will be glad to pass them along to
you.
I presume you have received the letter from IARBC
requesting a formal application for matching fund
grants not to exceed $10,000, the letter to reach the
commission prior to March 8, which will be their next
meeting.
