It's a Red, White, and Blue party all day long on the Fourth of July at Harbor!
The festivities start at the Park in Harbor South with our patriotic Fourth of July Four Wheeler Parade (and jeeps, and horses, and golf carts and UTV's...if it rolls, it goes in the parade!). The parade begins immediately following the program.
That evening, the lake's largest fireworks show lights up the lake with patriotic music. Guests come by land and by lake! Happy Birthday, America!
*REMINDER: Fireworks are prohibited on Harbor property (including Harbor South and Harbor East). A fine of $500 will be issued to any guest or owner who engages in firework activities. Thank you for your understanding.

Join us the day after Thanksgiving as we officially begin the start of Christmas at Harbor. Our fun and festive lighting ceremony includes live music on the stage, free hayrides to view the Christmas lights of Harbor, free cookies and hot cocoa and cider, Christmas story reading by Mrs. Clause and the arrival of Santa, himself via hayride wagon to turn on all the lights of Harbor! Open to the public and of course, there's no charge! It's Harbor's Christmas gift to the community!
The Joplin Fire Department holds their annual fundraiser the day after the lighting ceremony at the fire station. The volunteer firemen serve up pots and crocks of homemade spaghetti sauces with pasta, salad and garlic bread provided by Chris and Crew from the Lodge Restaurant. There's always a big game on the big flatscreen TV! There's a fun live auction and silent auction with great gifts for the holidays! Proceeds benefit the Joplin Volunteer Fire Department.
