Meadowlark Service League Distributes $180,000 in funds to local Nonprofit Organizations

CAMARILLO — Despite the challenges of past year’s pandemic closures, the Meadowlark Service League was able to raise $180,000 to support several local nonprofit organizations, as well as continuing to fund several scholarships for local students. Earlier this month, the dedicated service organization hosted their annual luncheon celebrating the work that so many nonprofits do around our region, and enjoyed a day that “felt like a return to normal,” according to President Linda Hardy, “as this event is the reason that we work so hard all year. The funds distribution luncheon is like wind in our sails as Meadowlarks, and connects us directly to those who benefit from the hard work we do all year.”

The next opportunity to support the Meadowlark Service League is to attend or sponsor “A Taste of Camarillo” which will be held on Sunday, July 25, from 12-4pm, at the historic Camarillo Ranch, and spaces are already filling up for the region’s longest running wine, food, and brew festival. This year will be a smaller, and more intimate event than in past years, so get your tickets while they last.

Tickets are available at ATasteofCamarillo.com and are priced at $100 each, and that ticket is all inclusive for the day’s events. There will be dancing and live music from country music favorite “Caught Red Handed.” Due to space restrictions, there will be no VIP section; however, private sponsor cabanas will be available.
