September was a fun-filled month in the Greater Sacramento Area! The Comcast California team had a great time attending the region’s staple events and connecting with local leaders and hundreds of community members.
Honoring the Greater Sacramento Area as the America’s Farm-to-Fork Capital
On Sunday, September 8, four members of the Comcast California Senior Leadership Team – Zenia Zaveri, Jonathan Fisher, Alan Goldsmith and Jacob Mitchell – attended the 2024 Tower Bridge Dinner, a Greater Sacramento signature event organized by Visit Sacramento that gathers 800 Sacramento and West Sacramento leaders. Comcast is a proud sponsor of this event that celebrates local chefs, farmers, ranchers, wineries, and more. The dinner proceeds will fund a series of scholarships for CAMP students at Sacramento State who are the children of migrant farmworkers.
The Tower Bridge Dinner is one of the events that kicks off the annual Farm-to-Fork Festival. The month-long celebration highlights the region’s food, agriculture, and people, and hosts several events for the community. Comcast Business is proud to sponsor the festival’s Grand Tasting which featured bites and beverages from some of Sacramento’s best chefs and restaurants. Xfinity was also in attendance during the Street Festival with a booth to connect with festivalgoers and provide information on our offerings.
Helping Beautify the Greater Sacramento Area
On Saturday, September 21st, employees from Comcast California’s Employee Resource Groups were up bright and early to participate in the American River Parkway Foundation‘s annual Great American River Clean-Up. This is the foundation’s largest clean-up event of the year, where over 1,200 volunteers gather to help remove trash and debris from the Parkway in the Sacramento area. Comcast is a proud sponsor of this event that conserves and nurtures the American River Parkway as a unique, accessible resource for everyone to enjoy.
