The City of Folsom dedicated Folsom’s Historic District outdoor amphitheater as the Zittel Family Amphitheater January 21. Many recognize the family name from Zittel Farms, a Folsom favorite farm and pumpkin patch since 1976. 

Roger Zittel was the first manager of the Folsom Chamber of Commerce and promoted businesses in the city for 20+ years. He was also a founding member of the Folsom Athletic Association and helped establish the city’s Parks & Recreation Department. Roger’s wife, Gail, served on Folsom’s Planning Commission for seven years and assisted with the development of the city’s General Plan.
