The City of Citrus Heights recently announced two new locations for the annual City Scoop ice cream social community gatherings.

This summer, City Scoop will take place at Tempo Park on Fair Oaks Boulevard on Wednesday, June 17, and at Sylvan Middle School on Wednesday, July 15.

Each City Scoop event will take place from 6:30 to 8 p.m. and features backyard style games, and free ice cream for attendees. In the past, ice cream has been offered by Leatherby’s Family Creamery and by Sam’s Club.

The monthly ice cream social events are designed to encourage and facilitate community gatherings among neighbors, city staff, and other community members, according to the city’s website.

In 2023, the inaugural City Scoop summer series featured three ice cream socials throughout the summer at various locations in Citrus Heights, including Greenback Greenspace, Sylvan Community Center, and Westwood Park.

This will be the fourth year the city is hosting its City Scoop events.
