CITRUS HEIGHTS, CA (MPG) - Due to the State’s guidelines for COVID-19 rental facility closures, the Citrus Heights Community Center remains closed publically for all in-house and in-person events. For this reason, the Community Center team has created a unique solution to support various organizations’ fundraising goals for 2021.

The new Citrus Heights Community Center “contactless drive-thru package” includes the rental of the commercial kitchen within the facility to either prepare or package take-out style meals for drive-thru pick-up. Packaged meals may also include sealed alcohol sales (ABC Permit is required).

Two Citrus Heights community organizations have already taken advantage of this unique opportunity. The group’s combined event sold approximately 200 meal tickets and featured two separate pickup times to avoid any traffic congestion. Safety measures taken by the organizations included limited volunteers directing drivers to the pick-up location, directional signage for drivers, social distancing, and wearing masks and gloves. 

The organizations also held an online auction before the drive-thru date and the winners were able to pick up auction items along with their meals.

If your organization is interested in the contactless drive-thru package, please contact [email protected] and [email protected] for details and available dates.
