COVID-19 drive-thru testing site opens at Festival Hall in Racine

 

RACINE, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A new drive-thru COVID testing site opened at Festival Hall in Racine. 

Anyone five or older can get a test at the site, but minors must have a parent or guardian with them.

Organizers strongly recommend that you preregister to lessen wait times and have secure accuracy of the data.

They say this location is important so residents have a close site to go to.

"Being that this is being a zone that is surrounded by other well-sized communities and it's our most southeastern area that we will repetitively be coming back to," said Wisconsin National Guard Warrant Officer Andrew Meyer. "It allows opportunity for people to not have to drive up all the way to Madison or Milwaukee to our other permanent sites."

Testing starts at 10 a.m. and ends at 6 p.m. through Friday, Sept. 11.
