Some people park the car at the Clam Jumper plaza (FREE) and walk up to the theater. The building is well maintained & very clean. Next month, they are doing renovation in the lobby, it is going to look even better when it is completed. 3 windows at the Box Office. It takes me about 10 minutes to get my tickets from the Will Call windows. The theater is not too small. Sound system is excellent! The ushers are super friendly. The Legally Blonde musical is phenomenal~ All the performers are very talented with great voice. The music is very cheerful. The story is very funny. What a great show~ The story is very inspiring for the children!! It is a perfect show for the family.

Legally Blonde, The Musical... OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! First, a HUGE thanks to Brittany A. &…read moreGenna U. for organizing this YEE (yelp Elite Event) so close to home and inviting us to enjoy this unexpectedly wonderful opening night performance! A pleasant surprise was the complimentary tickets... LOVE being on the yelp Elite squad! Just for clarification, the Cabrillo Music Theatre is the musical production company that performs at the Fred Kavli Theatre of Performing Arts, at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza. Easy parking access. We arrived at 7:40pm with a daunting line at the will call/ ticket booth, but the line moved quickly and we were still able to hit the restrooms before settling down in our seats to enjoy the show. The Kavli Theatre is a modern structure that is even more beautiful @ night. Staff is friendly and VERY helpful. Auditorium is a good size, seating about 1800 people. Well spaced, as it wasn't difficult to pass through the rows. I didn't kick or knock knees with anyone to get to our seats. We sat in the orchestra section, Row P, and could easily see all the facial expressions of the performers. Not stuffy at all in the large hall during the performance and never heard a glitch in the sound system. Most men were casually dressed, as it was rare to see a suit & tie (I was out of place sportin' the bow tie), but lots of ladies looking elegant in their dresses and heels. As far as the show, Legally Blonde, the Musical, was SO ENTERTAINING! This movie adaptation was FUNNY, with captivating voices & performances, and the music was engaging. I enjoyed the movie, and this musical production stayed true to the film, yet, enhanced the story of Elle Woods... brought it to another level! OH MY GOSH! Bravo Cabrillo Music Theatre... BRAVO! We had a GREAT time and look forward to more!

Held at a large church yard with great parking across from Vons on Moorpark street. There are multiple live bands performing the entire time. Purchasing the VIP ticket looks worth while getting to be in vip tent with more food/alcohol selection. I would return next year.

Different zones were laid out this time, which seemed logical to me. These included Kid Zone, Pet Zone, food & beverage vendors, craft show section, and a sprinkling of local nonprofits and also for-profit businesses. I did notice that the Kid Zone had arts & crafts, plus a bungee jumping opportunity. The jumping was $10, so I hope they gave the kids a long time to bounce once harnessed into the equipment. Arts & crafts may have been free; didn't check too closely. Noticed that the number of booths seemed lighter than in past years. There were gaps along the route where either the vendor was a no-show, or they didn't sell the space in advance. A persistent breeze made it challenging for anyone trying to offer a mirror for patrons to check out their potential purchases, especially of clothing items. A mix of jewelry, purses, hats, clothes, household crafts like pillows, and more were available to tempt shoppers. One of my favorite people, Linda, with Twisted Temptations jewelry & fashion clothing, was there again. I found several seasonal items at her booth. Score! Always nice to perk up the wardrobe and visit with a kind person. Some of the other vendors I recall from years past weren't there this time, which made it a quicker run-through for me. Dear Hubby and I went over to the food and entertainment zone to watch a country-western band play for awhile. Finding seats under the colorful umbrellas, we soon learned that it might take a couple of beers to be mellow enough to appreciate the group. They were "pitchy" as they used to say on American Idol, on the singing side. The instrumentals were fun and high energy. A number of local craft breweries were on hand, with the standard charge at $6, reasonable these days. Didn't check out the food booths, as we'd had lunch on the Garden Tour not long before. Finished off by checking out some of the classic cars at the Car Show part of the event. I have loved antique autos for many decades. It was nice to see so many shiny examples of early design. DH mentioned one family had owned a '56 T-Bird continually since she came out of the showroom; with original paperwork on hand for the sale. That's impressive! Always worth checking out this salute to community spirit each April. Kudos to the Rotary Club for putting on an event that everyone can gather together to enjoy.

The talent of the student performers is endless. They put on great shows and the staging and direction is world class. It's better than going to LA to equity houses and all for a low price. We do have one suggestion -- please consider audience etiquette before going. We recently attended and a family of one of the cast members were just in a word -- gross. You don't have to wear a tux but a t-shirt with Spuds McKenzie from 1985, mom? Also not cool you cut us in line going in. Dad, there is no photographs or video in the theatre during performances. You made it hard for us to see as you attempted to be Wes Anderson moving around your seat on a swivel. Finally, your son/nephew/cousin is, yeah. It's cool. You seemed to be unaware when you yelled, "Go for it!" as he kissed a female cast member on the stage. Just a little self awareness is what we're suggesting here. Glad you support his theatre aspirations! If you're the student who this is about, I'm really sorry. They sure love you and that's all we could want for you. (We'd also pay to see you on Broadway, too. You are quite talented!) but you and your cast mates deserved better. In fact, we all did.

But if being Greek wasn't actually dependent on your actual DNA, but instead measured by your Love for a Country, the Love for its People & the absolute Love for its food.... Then put me down as a 100%, Purebred, Hellenic-Bloodline Greek. Yeah, Greece is a magical place and a must see if you've never been. And although I have absolutely zero Greek blood in me, after my visit there in 2017, the country, the people, the wine and the food, will forever remain in my heart until I return one day again. ------------------------------- This past weekend, we saw that Camarillo was hosting its annual Ventura County Greek Festival and we knew immediately that we would be attending. So we loaded up the kids, headed over the hill and off to Camarillo we went. Apparently there is an offsite parking area that has shuttles to take you over and drop you off right in front, but we saw that other vehicles were heading up the hill from the event and so we decided to follow. Fortunately, there was street parking in an adjacent neighborhood and it was only a 5 min walk to the front gates. As we entered and paid for admission (kids free, $6 for adults and free for Active Duty/Retired Military) we felt instantly transformed back to our trip to Greece. Sure, the Parthenon located in Athens wasn't there... And the white buildings with blue roofs overlooking the Aegean Sea couldn't be seen... But... Greek Flags... The aromas of delicious Greek food being prepared... Bottles of Greek Wine & Beer waiting to be served.... Greek music playing in the background... And the beautiful St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church front and center of the festival... It was as close to being back to Greece as we could get. The Festival was surrounded by freshly prepared authentic Greek Food, and let me tell you.... It was heavenly! Greek Wine, Greek Beer, Greek inspired cocktails and even Greek coffee were also available for purchase. In addition to the food and drinks, there was live Greek music and opportunities to both dance and watch Greek Dancers perform for all to watch. Various vendors were on site selling all things Greek as well as other handmade crafts for your home. The turnout was very impressive (we were there on Saturday) and we stayed for about 2 hours or so. Bounce houses, areas to run on the grass and ice cream and various treats were all available for the kids. They even had a dominos pizza tent set up for anyone who just wasn't down for Greek food. The 3 day annual event is definitely a must if you are a Ventura County resident or a lover of all things Greek. We will ABSOLUTELY return next year! As they say in Greece... Opa!!

Weather in Southern California usually permits a wealth of outdoor activities, this day being no…read moredifferent than most. We attended the Thousand Oaks annual chili cook-off (our very first), and while we have no point of comparison, I would say it was, at a minimum, interesting. Chili is not my first "go to" food, but I certainly enjoy food with flavor, and depending on the chili, it can be quite flavorful. Truth be told, we made an appearance at this event because the company my daughter works for had a booth there. My daughter was working it, and I wanted to be the good mom that I am and show support. The fact that the proceeds of this outdoor event also support a number of charitable groups, that didn't hurt either. We did taste some chili while we there, and in a nutshell, we liked Squeakin' Beaver's chili and Whole Foods' (yes, the market) mild chili the best. We also liked Cisco's, followed by Bogie's chili. We also tried Nefola (?) Café Vegan chili, but it was so watery when they poured it in, we threw it right out. YUCK..... who makes watery chili? Disgusting. I mean, downright WATERY. We also tried Cowgirl Chili, Just A Tip mild chili, Viking chili and Holeshot chili, but all four of those were awful. Either they were too sweet or just plain bad. Holeshot had a very bizarre flavor and texture....... but at least it wasn't watery. Anyway....... I fully recommend Squeakin' Beaver's and Whole Foods' chili.......... yum !!

$20 per person (under 10 free) $5 to park…read more Parking: is $5 and far away from the event. We had our stroller and it was extremely difficult to maneuver due to the fact that not every area had a ramp leading inside to the cook off We headed straight for the "kids zone" which consisted of an obstacle course, slide and bounce house (the YMCA staff was super friendly and helpful) my kids got to build a boat out of straws and do some gymnastics, the park playground was also in close proximity. The event itself was overcrowded and overpriced! Lines were just way too long. Especially for having small children. My husband and I ended up not eating or drinking anything while we were there. There also were no signs anywhere, I didn't even know where to exit. We wanted to love it but we were left disappointed. We won't be back.
