Conejo365 is growing by leaps and bounds. Our readership
continues to increase, while the event submissions for the magazine
are exploding. This kind of acceptance is very gratifying and we fully
expect to keep building on our early successes with help from our readers and our advertisers.
In fact, the magazine would not even exist without our advertisers. Through their participation,
we are able to offer Conejo365 to everyone in our area at no cost to them. Our advertisers have
truly invested in our community by supporting this publication, so, I encourage all of our readers
to use our partners’ services and attend their events.
Speaking of events, the Conejo Valley offers an amazing variety of activities from which to choose
any time of year. In one convenient place, we feature as many of these as we can in every issue
of Conejo365. If you don’t find what interests you between our pages, let us know and we’ll
make every effort to add it.
We’re so fortunate to live in the Conejo Valley. It just doesn’t get much better than this,
especially, in the late winter and early spring when we might get some rain to green things up
like we did this year. In this issue of Conejo365, we tried to capture a bit of the beauty that those
precious drops of moisture help create.
Enjoy this issue of Conejo365 and please keep the event listings coming!
Sincerely,
Mike Corridori, Editor in Chief

Priscilla Liang - China: the Socialist Market Economy China has implemented waves of market driven reforms
since Deng Xiaoping initiated the concept of “socialist
market economy” in 1978. Today, China is the world’s
largest trading nation and second largest economy
and has achieved the fastest and longest sustained
economic growth that is unprecedented in the history of

The Reserve
at Thousand Oaks
“I visited a lot of assisted living
communities because my kids didn’t think
I should live alone any more — like it is
THEIR decision?
Then I visited The Reserve. The entire
place had energy and activity. I met three
people just waiting for my tour and they
were on all on their way somewhere.
The food was truly restaurant quality—
and I was told by the other residents
that it is like that every day!

Kingsmen Shakespeare Festival
Presents “Measure for Measure”
Cal Lutheran University,
60 W. Olsen Rd., Thousand Oak
Although counted as a comedy because of its plot twists
and ending, “Measure for Measure“ presents a bleak world
of manipulation and danger. In a wise ruler’s absence,
moral extremists hold authority in Vienna and are left
with life-and-death decisions; sinful transgressions lead to
death or a life of shame; and mercy, justice and equity are
talked about but rarely seen. Michael J. Arndt will direct.
Play begins at 8:00 p.m.
