Looking Forward
The Conejo Open Space Foundation (COSF) is working with various organizations and with residents of Thousand Oaks to ensure that the trails, canyons, and ridgelines will be preserved for future generations. Since COSF has no paid officers or staff, every dollar acquired returns great benefits to the Conejo Open Space. A COSF goal for the coming year is to raise funds for the installation of a bridge that would provide access from Wildwood Park to the western Conejo Canyons area for hikers, bicyclists and equestrians. To that end, COSF is working with COSCA in the development phase of Conejo Canyons, and will apply for matching grants from local organizations and corporations.
Community participation and financial support are invaluable to these projects, especially in this time of budget cutbacks. Please join the Foundation or renew your membership today. If you are already a COSF member, please consider renewing with a Family or Corporate membership.
Thank you for supporting the Conejo Open Space. Happy New Year!
