Some volunteers will help the city plan two major events, a Fourth of July party and a bluegrass festival Aug. 6.
The city of Calabasas launched the volunteer program three years ago, when it contracted the program out to Agoura Hills.
It took over the program the following year.
Last year, about 100 teen-agers participated, according to city officials.
