The City of Chula Vista, in partnership with the United States Olympic Training Center, Chula Vista (OTC), announces the city�s Centennial Celebration will be hosted on the scenic OTC campus on Saturday, October 15, 2011. Admission to the event, commemorating Chula Vista�s 100th anniversary, is free and open to the public. Residents and visitors are encouraged to check out www.ChulaVista100.com and "friend" the Centennial Facebook page to receive the latest updates.
Originally known as the Lemon Capital of the World for the city�s origins in citriculture, a touch of history and a twist of lemon are the ideal ingredients for the Chula Vista Centennial Celebration. The Centennial Celebration will pay tribute to the city's roots by featuring a Lemon Zest Tasting where attendees will savor tasty dishes and desserts from local restaurants, wineries and breweries as they serve up samplings that include a key component - lemon.
Chula Vista's Centennial Celebration will be complete with music and live entertainment. Visitors will enjoy a variety of artists and music on two stages and cool off in the Craft Brew & Cocktail Garden.
Families and friends can also look forward to a 2012 London Summer Olympic preview, a vintage car show, and wander along the Olympic Path to learn about Chula Vista's history while shopping for unique keepsakes from arts and crafts vendors. More details will be announced as the city-wide celebration grows closer.
