October has arrived, and with it comes crisp mornings, colorful leaves, and the energy of a new season! In this issue, we’re celebrating both the joy of fresh beginnings and the comfort of community traditions.

We start with some of the best moments of fall, our Back to School feature captures those first-day smiles that light up the neighborhood. You’ll also meet a wonderful Wildhorse family of four who, though they’ve been here just two years, already bring so much fun and warmth to the community.

Our younger neighbors continue to amaze! This month we spotlight a talented 12-year-old from Wilderness whose creativity shines, along with a Wildhorse 6th grade cheerleader whose flips are carrying her to success. And don’t miss the Living Spaces feature, where a patient Wildhorse family shares the kitchen makeover they dreamed of for seven years.

All this, and more, awaits inside. Wishing you a festive, fun-filled October surrounded by neighbors and friends!
