West Nile virus detected in Thousand Oaks

The Ventura County Environmental Health Division said the bird, collected July 2, tested positive with confirmation by the California Department of Public Health. While this might sound alarming, it’s a reminder to take simple precautions: drain standing water around your home, use insect repellent, and report any dead birds to local authorities.

Going for the gold, silver and green

Remember when Lake Casitas was the star of the 1984 Olympics? Ventura County played host to the world as canoeing and rowing events unfolded right here near Ojai. Fast forward to 2028, and while our waters won’t be home to any medal events this time, that doesn’t mean our communities are sitting out the excitement. As the Thousand Oaks Acorn reports, cities across Acorn country are already brainstorming ways to welcome global visitors and capture that Olympic spirit. It’s a different kind of gold rush this go-around—one focused on green. Think eco-tourism, sustainable travel packages, and local partnerships that highlight everything from our hiking trails to farmer’s markets. For Newbury Park, it’s a chance to shine as a gateway to the Central Coast’s natural beauty. Whether you’re a lifelong local or a visitor discovering our corner of the 805, the 2028 Games are still our chance to go for gold—just in our own way.
