The Citrus Heights Police Activities League is teaming up with the Folsom Police Foundation to host a 2nd annual pasta feed, helping raise funds to send a team of officers on a 120-mile foot race through the desert.
The pasta feed fundraiser will be held on October 17 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at St. John the Baptist Parish Hall in Folsom, with retired sheriff John McGinness serving as master of ceremonies. A live and silent auction is also set to take place during the evening, and no-host beer and wine is promised “for the grown-ups,” according to an event flier.
Funds raised from the pasta feed will go to help the Folsom-Citrus Heights PD 2016 “Baker to Vegas” team compete in the annual 120-mile foot race through the deserts of California and Nevada.
The Challenge Cup “Baker to Vegas” race began in 1985, with “B2V” 2016 set to take place on March 19 and 20.
According to Citrus Heights Police Department Sgt. Michael Wells, CHPD’s first participation in the run was last year, in conjunction with Folsom police. Wells said the team finished 167 out of 262 teams overall this year.
Both police departments use the race as a fundraiser for each Department’s nonprofit organizations – the Citrus Heights Police Activities League and the Folsom Police Foundation.
Tickets for the pasta feed are available for purchase at $20 for an adult, $10 for kids age 5 and up, and free for kids under 5-years-old. Tickets for the pasta feed must be purchased by October 12 and can be paid for online at FolsomPoliceFoundation.org.
