Welcome<br />
THE FOUNTAIN<br />
TO FOUNTAIN HILLS<br />
At its full height of 560 feet, the fountain in the center of <strong>Fountain</strong><br />
<strong>Hills</strong> is higher than the Washington Monument. It is also 10 feet<br />
taller than Notre Dame Cathedral, 110 feet higher than the Great<br />
Pyramid of Cheops in Egypt and three times as high as Old Faithful<br />
in Yellowstone Park. The fountain is the focal point of community<br />
celebrations and the pride of our residents. If you happen to visit<br />
during the St. Patrick’s Day celebration, you’ll see the fountain<br />
transform to bright emerald green. On special occasions, the<br />
fountain is extended to its full height and lights up in a rainbow of<br />
color at night. For everyday viewing, the fountain reaches a height<br />
of 330 feet! You can view livestream video of the famous fountain<br />
24 hours a day at experiencefountainhills.org/thefountain.<br />

A message from Mayor Ginny Dickey<br />
Iconic songwriter Randy Newman’s lyrics provide a simple but powerful<br />
message: There is a familiar, reassuring sense of place many hold in their<br />
hearts.<br />
<strong>Fountain</strong> <strong>Hills</strong> offers this and more for our residents and visitors. We are a<br />
unique and amenity rich community with natural beauty, great shopping, lodging, abundant<br />
food choices, excellent schools, safe neighborhoods, and small-town charm. All of this<br />
comes with easy access to a thriving metropolitan area including universities, entertainment,<br />
professional sports, and an international airport… yet surrounded by the mystery and wildlife<br />
of the desert, punctuated by our namesake fountain.<br />
Those passing by are drawn to enter. <strong>Visitor</strong>s are tempted to stay. Our friendly citizens<br />
are eager to support businesses, education, new activities and opportunities. The medical<br />
community provides world-class care for all ages while our parks and trails supply amenities<br />
for a healthy lifestyle. With safe neighborhoods, plentiful clubs, welcoming churches and<br />
artists of every variety, <strong>Fountain</strong> <strong>Hills</strong> is the definition of community.<br />
Throughout the year, you will find award-winning arts and crafts festivals, concerts, live<br />
theater, family-friendly activities and celebrations unique to our town, such as the International<br />
Dark Sky Festival! When <strong>Fountain</strong> <strong>Hills</strong> residents venture away, we often hear how glad<br />
they are to get home to arguably one of the most beautiful places in the world…unequaled<br />
in sunsets, mountain shadows, blooming deserts and that sense of community. Indeed, why<br />
would anyone want to be away for long?<br />
Randy Newman’s song ends with, “Feels like I’m on my way back where I belong.” Isn’t that<br />
what we all want?<br />
