Beaver County commissioners on Jan. 6 ratified a $15,000 grant supporting the Young Guns youth shooting program, with the county serving as fiscal agent for the award.

The grant was awarded through a state funding stream targeted at rural youth and outdoor recreation projects; program leaders said the grant will leverage private donations and an existing county-managed endowment to cover operating costs.
Commissioners moved and approved the ratification by voice vote. Staff confirmed the county will sign the contract and manage fiscal reporting on behalf of the program.
What happens next: staff will finalize the contract documents and oversee grant disbursement and required reporting to the grantor.
