CITRUS HEIGHTS, Calif. — Sunday Funday is coming back to Citrus Heights, after two years of being canceled by COVID-19 restrictions, just in time to celebrate the cities 25th anniversary.
The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 25 at Rusch Park, 7801 Auburn Blvd.
From food trucks and children's activities to live music and a tree planting to celebrate the anniversary, the event has plenty for the community to engage with.
Meghan Huber, with the city of Citrus Heights, says Sunday Funday has been a long-standing, signature event for the city.
“We’re really excited to bring (the event) back for our community, bigger and better,” said Huber. “It’s really a slice of Citrus Heights.”
Huber says this is the first large community event since the COVID-19 pandemic began which encouraged the city to go “all out.”
