Community Joy

In Horizon West, the holidays shine with community spirit.

Each community celebrates the holiday season in its own way, but in Horizon West, joy is part of everyday life. This master-planned community was built on connection, and that sense of togetherness shines even brighter during the holidays.

Local schools, service clubs, and businesses turn generosity into tradition through toy drives, family sponsorships, and acts of service that spread warmth throughout the community. 5ks and Fun Runs give folks a chance to get active (and sometimes silly!) while building traditions like The Great Turkey Trot. Holiday markets fill the streets with local makers, and Christmas at Hamlin invites families to gather, stroll, and celebrate the season.

Whether you call Horizon West home or you’re just visiting, you’ll feel the spirit of joy that defines this community. It’s found in every shared smile, every helping hand, and every moment spent together. In Horizon West, the holidays remind us that true joy comes from connection.
