Welcome, 2018! Hopefully, this will be another amazing year of Conejo memories.

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to channel my energies toward making this world a better

place. Part of this effort will be through this magazine, keeping our friends and neighbors

current on all of the wonderful events they can enjoy in the Conejo and surrounding areas.

I’m not sure if you are aware of this, but Conejo365 is designed and printed right here in the

Conejo Valley by CR Print. The company donates its time and resources to bring this quarterly

magazine of fun filled activities to you. CR Print and the magazine advertisers make our

free publication possible, which is an extraordinary way of giving back to and enriching our

community. Please show your support and use the services of our supporters and be sure to

attend the events being promoted in Conejo365.

You know, we receive lots of emails from people asking us to put their events in the magazine.

And, while we do our very best to get them all in, the surest way is to go to our website at

www.conejo365.com and post the event yourself. It’s so easy to do and you’ll also get your

event into our weekly email update that goes to thousands of our subscribers.

By the way, are you getting our weekly email called “Here’s What’s Happening in the Conejo”?

You really should, as it’s the most comprehensive listings of events in the Conejo. You will

never feel “out of the loop” again. At the bottom of our webpage is a place where you can sign

up or just shoot me an email at [email protected] and I will add you.

I hope our magazine helps brighten your New Year and that 2018 will truly be amazing for you.

Thank you.
