Community Connection in Season of Thanksgiving

Celebrating Community Connection and the Season of Giving at Tesoro Viejo

What makes a community feel like family? Is it the familiar faces, the small-town feel, or the shared moments that linger long after the season’s decorations come down? At Tesoro Viejo, it’s all of that and more!

This isn’t your average housing development — it’s a master-planned community where every neighborhood, every park, and every event brings people together. And when it comes to the Season of Giving, Tesoro Viejo pulls out all the stops!

A Tradition of Community Events and Giving Back

In the heart of the sun-drenched San Joaquin Valley, just a few minutes north of Fresno, there’s a place that knows how to give back. All year long, Tesoro Viejo comes together for causes that matter, from the October Central Valley Heart and Stroke Walk fundraiser with the American Heart Association to the heartfelt Veterans Day pancake breakfast and flag display honoring local heroes. These moments of connection underscore our commitment to an engaged, fulfilling lifestyle at Tesoro Viejo, especially as the holidays approach.

Embracing the Season of Giving at Tesoro Viejo

Throughout the year, neighbors gather and celebrate at Tesoro Viejo. Residents can enjoy live music at the amphitheater, creating lively spring and fall nights, or explore the weekly certified Farmer’s Market, which showcases the freshest local produce and handmade goods from around the San Joaquin Valley. Our events calendar is packed with opportunities to come together in every season and enjoy everything this unique neighborhood offers.

Tesoro Viejo has a giving heart, and it’s in full force during the holidays! From November 15 through December 15, we’re supporting the Toys for Tots Holiday Drive, gathering new, unwrapped toys to brighten the holidays for children in need.

You’ll see collection boxes set up at our Welcome Center, ready for your donation. It’s a simple gesture that means the world to a child, and it’s a tradition we’re proud to be a part of.

On December 7, Tesoro Viejo comes together for the Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day Ceremony. This is a powerful, emotional tribute. We gather to honor those who lost their lives in the attack on Pearl Harbor, with local leaders, moving performances, and a beautiful Eight Bells Ceremony to mark their memory. It’s a moment of reflection and one of those rare occasions where you feel everyone is genuinely united.

Upcoming Holiday Events and Festivities

If one event gets everyone in the holiday spirit, it’s our annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony. On December 5th, families, friends, and neighbors fill the Town Center to watch Santa light up our 35-foot tree, surrounded by the voices of Hillside Elementary students singing carols.

The kids’ eyes light up just as much as the tree, especially when they see the Polar Express train rides, Santa himself, and the treats from AXIS Coffee Bar + Eatery. It’s a little slice of holiday magic that lingers with you long after you head home.
