Recreation Division Highlights Page 2 of 5 Revised 05.2021 Conejo Senior Volunteer Program Free Income Tax Program The Conejo Senior Volunteer Program’s Free Income Tax Program is in cooperation with the IRS and is in its 31st year. Our Volunteer Tax Coordinators have spent hundreds of hours adopting a hybrid, virtual/in-person tax program this season. Beginning February 12th, CSVP began scheduling tax appointments. Clients came to two different locations at the Goebel Center where they would have their documents scanned to our preparers working from home. With the IRS extension, CSVP transitioned to our in-person program on April 7 and will continue until May 14. While following strict CDC guidelines and adjusting to many challenges and modifications, CSVP volunteers, thus far, have worked over 5,000 hours and have prepared 1,500 free tax returns, bringing $1.2 million back to our community. The Busy Bees The Busy Bees have been working on the back patio at the Goebel Center. This volunteer group handmakes hundreds of items every year including afghans, hats, blankets, and clothing. CSVP donates these items to local partner agencies including James Storehouse, Los Robles Hospital, Hospice of the Conejo, and ASA. The Busy Bees were recently featured in the May 6 edition of the Acorn newspaper.
