Jousting Tourney Planned Next Week
The Middle Ages will come to the Conejo Valley next week when a nonprofit educational group hosts a jousting tournament with fully armored knights, war horses, colorful pennants and pageantry.
The Grand Tournament of Hope is scheduled Thursday and Friday as a school assembly event from 10 to 11 a.m. on three campuses: Conejo Valley High, 1872 Newbury Road in Newbury Park; Redwood Intermediate, 233 Gainsboro Road in Thousand Oaks, and Weathersfield School, 3151 Darlington Drive in Thousand Oaks.
Following the jousting, the performers from a group called The Guild will discuss knights and what they represented.
The speech is designed to help students say no to peer pressure, drugs and gangs.
For more information, call (818) 700-8973.
