It could be argued a drive-thru distribution in Fountain Valley on Sunday, Feb. 14, was the most festive yet to be held.
In celebration of the Lunar New Year that was ushered in on Friday, the distribution featured lion dancers, traditional drummers and brightly colored outfits, along with some 1,000 traditional meals.
The event was hosted in the parking lot of The Recess Room by Operation #MovingForwardTogether, the Orange County United Way and a coalition of community partners.
