This summer a dedicated group of women braved the intense 6-week curriculum of WEV’s Business Plan Intensive (BPI) course. We’ll applaud their achievements at an intimate graduation celebration tonight in Ventura. The Fall season of BPI begins in September.

There are three WEV events coming up in beautiful Santa Paula for you to choose from:

Orientation
Fillmore! Piru! Santa Paula! East Ventura – WEV has come to you! There’s no better way to learn about our programs than by attending a free orientation. Forward this to a friend who lives in the area, and watch the economic growth spread through our county. Click here to sign up for the orientation in Santa Paula on August 23rd, 6-7pm.

Bocce Ball Festival – Limoneira
WEV will be in attendance at the August 21st, Gourmet Food Truck and Bocce Ball Festival at Limoneira Ranch. Come out for a day of fun at this historic and picturesque location… and bring a friend by the WEV booth to learn about our Fall classes.

“WEV Connects” 
Save the date for our next “WEV Connects” event at the Best of VC Marketplace, (owner, Talia Wunder) on Thursday, Sept. 29th from 6:30-8:00 pm. You’ll have a chance to see some of Ventura County’s local “treasures”, while networking with other WEV clients and community members.
