QUESTION: I heard that the Conejo Senior Volunteer Program (CSVP) was hosting a special fund raising event. Do you have the where and when?
ANSWER: Yes, I was given the flyer just this week and it sounds like an evening of fun while supporting our local non-profits.
CSVP is hosting a Charity Karaoke – “Sing for a Cause” on Friday September 21st at the Borderline Bar and Grill located at 99 Rolling Oaks Drive in Thousand Oaks.

Doors open at 5:00 pm and the show will start at 6:00 pm. The event will be streamed on Facebook Live. Food and drinks will be available for purchase.
