On March 12, three events took place at the Olivas Adobe. A birthday celebration for Raymundo (Don) Olivas, photos and meeting with artists from the Thousand Oaks Photo Group and a Volunteer Orientation to learn about the many volunteer opportunities at the Olivas.
Don Raymundo Olivas and his friend Felipe Lorenzana were granted 4,670 acres of land by Mexican Governor Juan B. Alvarado as compensation for their service to the State. Don Raymundo began ranching his land, known as Rancho San Miguel, in 1847.
