The Strasburg Community Action Network provided the Strasburg Village Board with a check for $5000 to support the Strasburg Park project during the monthly August Village Board meeting. The Village of Strasburg was recently provided with a $318,000 OSLAD grant that the village now has to match or exceed the total dollar amount of the grant.

At this time, the Village of Strasburg is raising funds for their needed match of the OSLAD grant for the park project. Strasburg is turning to community members for support with their two scheduled fundraisers taking place in September. On September 7th, a bake sale will be held during the Town Wide Rummage Sales with proceeds supporting the project. On September 27th, the village of Strasburg will hold a ‘CASS’ Burrito meal towards the same benefit.

Currently, Strasburg still requires over $100,000 to at least match or exceed the OSLAD grant amount. For more information, contact Karen Kull at 217-549-3141.
