Helen Hunt Jackson Re-enactment 

Visitors can experience a re-creation of Helen Hunt Jackson’s Jan. 23, 1882, visit to Rancho Camulos, which inspired her to include this vestige of the Californio lifestyle as one of the settings for her novel “Ramona.” Reenactors will portray this event that forever changed the peaceful life at Rancho Camulos. Docent-led tours will follow the reenactment until 4 p.m. The suggested donation for the re-enactment is $10 and reservations can be made (suggested but not required) at 805-521-1501. Rancho Camulos, the only National Historic Landmark in Ventura County, is on Highway 126, about 10 miles west of Interstate 5. More information about the museum can be found at ranchocamulos.org.
