Block Reservations

Block reservations allow the organizer of a local school science fair to bring a pre-set number of projects from a local fair to compete in the Flint Area Science Fair, even though the local fair is held after the application deadline. Applications submitted through the block reservation process do not have to pay late fees.

Local Fair Directors need to contact the Director of the Flint Fair by FEBRUARY 8, 2008 if they desire to use the alternate BLOCK RESERVATION method.
