Building Connections Through Community Events

Amy Holsapple, Recreation Manager • October 16, 2024

Community events foster a sense of belonging, help individuals form meaningful connections, and create a welcoming environment for new homeowners to feel at home.

When planning our community events, our goal is to cater to a wide range of interests and ensure everyone feels included. We love seeing our community come together for concerts in the park, parades, and our Fall Festival this weekend, forming new friendships and strengthening bonds. Local events play a significant role in making a community feel more like home. They create a sense of belonging by offering shared experiences and opportunities for connection.


Over the years, we’ve witnessed complete strangers meet at our events and form lasting friendships, sometimes even becoming chosen family. This speaks to the unique power of these gatherings to bring people together who may not have otherwise crossed paths.


These events are an invaluable resource for new homeowners, especially those who may not have family or friends nearby. It’s a chance for them to meet their neighbors, grow their social circle, and develop a support system within the community. In many ways, these events help people “grow their village,” making it easier for them to settle into their new surroundings.


Our mission is to continue creating spaces where all members of the community feel welcome, valued, and connected. Whether it’s a casual get-together or a large festival, each event is designed to enrich lives and strengthen the fabric of our neighborhood.
