How to use the same event for a number of controls?

I have a lot of checkboxes inside a panel and I want to ask if exist any way to reproduce a event action in all the checkboxes without need to write the same for the 20 checkboxes:

  Private Sub C1CheckBox1_CheckedChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles C1CheckBox1.CheckedChanged
        C1CheckBox1.Text = "test"
    End Sub

EDIT:

I don't mean how to change the text property of all the checkboxes inside the C1CheckBox1 event, what I mean is how to clone that event for all the checkboxes, if one of all checkboxes is clicked then reproduce the same event for all, it's a little difference (I think)

UPDATE:

Pseudocode:

sub event that affect to all my checkboxes in the panel
    If ANY checkbox_CheckedChange then
       ALL_the_other_Checkboxes.Checked = False
    end if
end sub

The difference that I'm trying to talking about is I ask if this is possible only writing one event or something like, to not write the same property change in the 20 other checkbox events.

You can handle the same event by doing a comma separated list of controls and their event.

EG:

Private Sub C1_CheckedChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) 
    Handles C1CheckBox1.CheckedChanged, C1CheckBox2.CheckedChanged, ... C1CheckBox50.CheckedChanged
        ...
        Do Action
        ....
    End Sub
