YOUTH FAIR TRANSPORTATION
Each year the ACFB provides bus transportation from Alachua County schools for field trips to the Alachua County Youth Fair and Livestock Show. These funds are available to elementary schools on a first come, first served basis. Schools are asked to submit the exact amount needed in their initial request so that funds can be made available to as many schools as possible. Submission of the final bill for more than the funds allocated will be denied on this basis.
Each year the Youth Fair and Livestock Show is scheduled for late winter or early spring. Written submission of the requested amount of funds can be forwarded via email or fax up to seven business days prior to the scheduled date of the event.
