  • APEX is here ... and there: The Rose Bowl has retained the services of an event management company, APEX, to serve as a neighborhood liaison on all major ("displacement") event days. APEX staff will be stationed in Arroyo-facing neighborhoods to respond to event-related issues as they arise. To reach an APEX representative, call (626) 397-4141.
