The Jasper County Tourism Commission

Promoting County Destinations, Events & Communities

The Jasper County Tourism Commission (JCTC) was formed to promote the development and growth of the convention, visitor, and tourism industry in Jasper County and has the authority to allocate some of the funds generated by the Jasper County Innkeeper’s Tax.

The JCTC has established the Community Activities Support Program and the Capital Project Support Grant in order to supply funding, at its direction, to Indiana not-for-profit organizations to promote and encourage conventions, visitors, and tourism in Jasper County.
