Fall into Fun in Horizon West!

Up first in the line-up, we want to encourage you to show your school spirit with a family trip to one of the Wolverine Football games. Friday night lights are alive and well in Horizon West with home games every other week at Deputy Scott Pine Park. Windermere High School will host its homecoming game on October 11th, complete with a special halftime performance and the presentation of this year’s homecoming court. Kick-off is at 7pm with food available as well as Wolverine Spirit Wear! 

Bringing us their very first full-scale performance on October 10th is the Horizon West Theater Company! This community-based company kicked off earlier this year with a series of classes, community nights and fund-raising to bring us The Music Man. This family-friendly classic will be held at The Cypress Center at Windermere Preparatory High School. Tickets are available for October 10th-12th so make sure to come out and support your local community theater!
