GENEVA – The Geneva Chamber of Commerce is seeking a grant of nearly $98,300 from the Kane County Riverboat Fund to set up a first-floor visitors center at 10 S. Third St., officials said.

Having a visitors center is one of the Chamber’s goals for this year, as detailed in its 2012 annual report on tourism.

“We applied for riverboat grant money for the visitors center,” Geneva Chamber President Jean Gaines said. “We think it is important to have a visitors center at the county seat, and we hope they think it’s worthy, too.”
