Save that money you’d put in your gas tank and take it instead to spend at the Santa Paula’s 42nd Annual Kiwanis Club Citrus Festival by taking the free shuttle that will let you off right at the gates of the July 17-19 celebration at Harding Park. The festival will be held Friday, 5 to 11 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, noon to 11 p.m.Admission is only $5 for adults and $1 for kids 10 and under, which includes all entertainment except for carnival rides, which are a separate - but still low-cost. Shuttle hours are Friday, 5 p.m. to midnight, Saturday noon to midnight, and Sunday noon to midnight. Parking is limited in the Harding Park area especially as a portion of East Harvard will be closed festival weekend.“We would encourage the community to use our free shuttle service,” said City of Santa Paula Community Services Director Brian Yanez. “The shuttle is easy, quick and efficient, and has a great turnaround time. You are picked up at your car at one of the locations, and dropped off right at the Citrus Festival’s door,” noted Yanez, and “When you leave the festival, the shuttle takes you right back to your vehicle.”
The shuttle will stop at City Hall (970 E. Ventura St.), the historic Depot (corner of Santa Barbara and 10th streets), Glen City Elementary School (corner of Main Street and Steckel Drive.), and Teague Park (Harvard Blvd. and Steckel Dr.). Public parking is available at all shuttle stop locations.“Every year we get a huge crowd for the festival, and people really appreciate the shuttle service,” said Yanez. “Now, with gasoline as expensive as it is, leave your vehicle at a shuttle pickup spot and we’ll take you over there and back. You don’t have to worry about finding parking near the festival, and you’ll have a fun ride on the shuttle.”For more information, visit the Kiwanis Club Citrus Festival website at www.santapaulafestival.org.
