She found 1 shoe, barely worn, of a black slip on by Doc Marten in her size! We looked and looked. We never found the mate. I also found a single shoe. I was only semi interested in them so not finding its mate was .. C'est la vie *such is life* (no big deal). Dang it! If someone was having a 70s party, I found the perfect jacket in my size. I didn't buy it. I just keep thinking about it. We also came across rad crop top shirts. Too small for me and not my daughter's style. I loved them nonetheless. I did buy something I absolutely do not need. It was a mini grocery cart with wheels. $2.99. What a steal. Cool selection. Not far from the freeway off-ramp. I would absolutely revisit this store.

My wife and I have been shopping at this Goodwill location for many years and have always enjoyed…read moreour visits. Unfortunately, our most recent experience was very disappointing. As soon as we walked into the store, we noticed a significant change in the atmosphere. There appeared to be a new manager on duty, I assume we've never seen him based on his name tag it appeared to be Abraham-Manager. Unlike our previous visits, no one greeted us when we entered. What stood out even more was overhearing this individual speaking negatively about other employees near the front of the store. The cashier's response and body language made it seem like she was uncomfortable and hesitant to speak up. The overall condition of the store was also noticeably worse than what we've come to expect. It was the emptiest we've ever seen it, merchandise was scattered throughout the wrong sections, and several areas appeared messy and unorganized. The store simply did not feel welcoming, clean, or well-managed. We've supported this location for years because of the friendly staff and positive shopping experience, but this visit left us disappointed. As a result of this experience, we will no longer be recommending shopping at this location to friends and family. We hope management takes these concerns seriously and works to restore the welcoming environment that once made this store a great place to shop.

We adopted a sweet cat from here in July and we could not be happier. I recommend this place, the application process is a breeze and is paperless. One difference between ASAP from other shelters is that you can foster cats and that they have different age cats avaliable. They will also not discriminate against people with disabilities and try to match you with a cat/kitten. I really enjoyed my experience and highly recommend ASAP.

What an amazing place that I honestly didn't even know existed! The people working here are so knowledgeable and good to the cats. The girls had the best time playing with the cats as well! They have small rooms to go in where you can hangout with the cats in an enclosed, safe environment. I can definitely tell that the cats here are really loved and cared for! This is such a loving place for these cats. Also, shoutout to ASAP for being so good with the girl scouts who visited them as well!

This Goodwill store, which opened a few days ago, replaced the Big Lots store in Camarillo…read more The space is enormous, with many clothes, shoes, electronics, books, knick-knacks, toys, and other miscellaneous items. You could spend a couple of hours perusing the aisles filled with items. Some things seem pricier, but dig deep, and you can find reasonably priced stuff! I was sad Big Lots closed, but Goodwill is an excellent choice for people like me looking for a bargain!

I see the same things week after week because no one wants to pay so much. Why not price fairly so that the inventory won't sit and get taken to the bins? The staff is friendly.

Wonderful community museum with amazing outdoor space and special events. We have enjoyed the…read morebirthday parties and pop-up events for years, so much that we were inspired to contribute. Now that phase 1 of the museum is complete and open we are amazed. A beautiful little outdoor theater, a play cafe and farmer's market, a real greenhouse and a Channel Islands themed playground are just a few highlights of the outdoor experience. The indoor has a nice little classroom and shop area and a really cool maker space including a cardboard "chomp saw" and lots of crafts! The staff are really kind, patient, polite, and helpful. They help transform this from a fun space into an inviting experience. You can tell how passionate they are about family learning. The museum is already amazing and a fitting successor to the library that used to be on the site. We can't wait for phase 2, when the rest of the indoor space is renovated and available!

This was a cute little STEAM museum. It had some neat exhibits and it was a pretty clean facility…read more It is not very big so if you're coming just keep in mind you probably won't spend more than a few hours here. There is basically one big outdoor area and two smaller indoor areas. The feedback I'd give; More shade outside would be helpful. It waa very hot when we were there and not much shade. A water exhibit would be good too with the heat! Overall we had fun but I did wish there was more to do for the kiddos.

Food Share is such an important resource and lifeline to Ventura County! The staff at the…read moredistribution center truly care about their mission, and it definitely shows through their actions. At a former job of mine, Food Share allowed the educational non-profit organization I worked for to shop weekly for fresh produce to distribute directly to elementary school students and families served in need, many of whom struggled with food insecurity. This partnership was vital, and very much appreciated by all because it helped improve food access throughout our community at wellness fairs and nutrition classes. Thank you for your hard work! I will never forget about the huge difference Food Share continues to make in countless lives throughout Ventura County, and the value they place on equity.

Google Maps decided to make adjustments to our Saturday plans to visit the Outlets by taking us…read morethrough a different route. We found ourselves driving through Camarillo Old Town for the first time. I was immediately drawn to the small-town shops and restaurants. Then we saw the Farmer's Market -- we had to stop. The husband was hungry, so we started with lunch at Freda's Pizza -- so good! We walked to explore and shop -- bought a couple things and met some really nice people. Then ended with a nice break at Rori's ice cream -- super yummy! Sadly we missed the Farmer's Market since it ends at noon, but it gives us a reason to return! :) Free parking everywhere. The area is clean with lots of benches. There are more places to eat than shop, but the outlets are just a mile down the road.

It's a great trend for Southern California communities with historical roots that go back to the…read morenineteenth century to be creative in preserving and celebrating that history. With the Adolfo Camarillo House built in the 1890's, Camarillo can lay claim to those kinds of historical bonafides. "Old Town" Camarillo doesn't go back that far, but the origins date to the 1910's. Many of the buildings have historical character and flair, with newer builds reflecting that nostalgic sensibility. A revamping early in this millennium added large planter beds and free-standing oversized pots with trees, bushes, and flowers. Benches allow a place to linger with a soft serve cone, smoothie, or other sweet treats. Sculptures and a signature vintage-style clock at the head of Arneill bring more visual interest to the many blocks on Ventura Blvd. Restaurant options range from quick and casual to more upscale and adventurous. Dear Hubby and I have definitely enjoyed Mister Softee's ice cream options many times, followed by a walk down to Saint Mary Magdalen's Chapel to enjoy taking in that façade. We don't live in Camarillo, so don't make it over there in time for breakfast very often, but there are multiple diners that specialize in fueling guests for "the most important meal of the day". Dorothy's Chuck Wagon Café is a long-time favorite for many. We've enjoyed early dinner at Twisted Oak Tavern, delicious small plates at Twenty 88, stellar gnocchi at Ottavio's, comfort BBQ chow at Bandit's, Mongolian BBQ at Wok 'n South, and everything we tried at Blvd. Burger was great. Parking is free, the whole area feels laid back, and it's very walkable. I took Adored Grandson there to buy him a new fancy skateboard for his 17th birthday. The crew at Revolution Board Company got him situated in great style. There could be more retail, for sure. The past few years have been especially hard for retail shopping venues, but Old Town doesn't seem to lack for choices of day spas or hair salons. Essentially, it's evolving, and worth a visit. Their Saturday morning Certified Farmers Market's been going strong for over 30 years. Hoping to check that out soon.
