A healthy lawn is one of the things that makes Thornhill look green and well-tended.  And while the rewards are easy to see, getting - and keeping - a healthy stand of grass that’s predominantly free of weeds takes preparation, know-how, and annual effort.  Add extra challenges like weeds, sun/shade issues, soil and drainage conditions, common diseases and pests, and lawn care can feel like a lot to tackle each year!

That’s why our ACC, Social and Grounds Committees are teaming up to bring you Thornhill's first Lawnapalooza! event.  Lawn care and yard improvement vendors will be on hand to share helpful information, answer questions, and offer tips specific to your yard. 

We hope you’ll join us for a fun, informative afternoon on Sunday, August 30, from 3–5 p.m.  To help us plan appropriately, please RSVP here!

Enjoy food and cold drinks, special vendor promotions, and some great door prizes you won’t want to miss!  There's something for everyone, so even if your turf is in great shape, stop by and find out how you can make the most of your yard.

With cooler weather around the corner, fall is an important time and September a critical month for our yards!

• To remove weeds in preparation for fall aeration and seeding
• To fill bare spots and bring an existing lawn back to life
• To replace turf with a more heat-tolerant variety
• To add irrigation and amend poor soil or drainage conditions
• To address excess shade by trimming trees and shrubs
• To better define turf areas for easier maintenance
• To improve moisture retention with freshly installed mulch

At Lawnapalooza, you'll be able to talk with the experts, explore ideas, and find out what might work best for your lot. 

And if you're a resident teen with a lawn care or leaf raking business, we'll have a signup area where you can boost business and talk to neighbors about your services.

We can’t wait to see you at Lawnapalooza 2026!
