Conejo365 | Fall 2017 | 1 Some people say we don’t have seasons in Southern California. While we do enjoy a temperate climate year-round in the Conejo, we certainly do have changes in our weather and in our landscapes. If you have hiked any of the wonderful trails in our Santa Monica Mountains, you’ll experience a whole new perspective of where we live (and why we live here). Especially in the Fall, the hills are golden and dotted with giant green oak trees. The views from our mountain peaks are spectacular and seem to go on forever. If you’re looking out from some of these vistas, you can see a far off Catalina and the Channel Islands. Just a turn of 180 degrees and the entire Conejo Valley is revealed below. It just doesn’t get much better than this. Then, again, there is the incredible entertainment that is available to us in the Conejo. Just look through this magazine at the amazing variety of events and things to do here, further validating why we call this our home. Even with that, there is always more to discover. There are new opportunities popping up all of the time, which is why we maintain a current, online version of Conejo365. If there is an event or activity that you are planning or know about that’s not already in either our printed magazine or website, go ahead and add it yourself. YES!! You can really do this. Just go to our website at www.conejo365.com and click on the “add your event” button and give us the scoop. No event is too small or too large for our pages and it’s FREE to list your information. As I travel throughout our communities, I hear a lot of people talking about how they like doing business locally and keeping our dollars at home. To that I say, look through this magazine. Our advertisers have invested in helping us bring all of our residents a one-stop shop for everything there is to do in the Conejo. Support the merchants in our area and take advantage of the many activities available to you and your family. If you are Interested in advertising your event or your business, contact me at mike@ conejo365.com. For those who prefer a digital version of Conejo365, we send out a weekly email on Thursdays called “Here’s what’s happening in the Conejo.” If you would like to receive these updates, go to our website and register at the bottom of the page. This version of Conejo365 is more current since it includes events that are added after the print publication. See you on our trails, at our events and in our stores. It’s what’s happening in the Conejo.
