Join us for an unforgettable evening under the lights at Light a Path—Candlelight Ranch’s signature gala celebrating the power of nature to heal, connect, and inspire.
This year’s event will take place on Thursday, October 23, 2025, at the beautiful Junior League of Austin and will feature an extraordinary lineup of community, cuisine, and heart. Guests will enjoy craft bites from some of Austin’s most beloved chefs, moving stories from the Ranch, and exciting live and silent auctions—all in support of the children and families we serve year-round. Thanks to the generosity of sponsors like H-E-B Tournament of Champions, and guests like you, this evening will help us continue providing life-changing outdoor experiences to children and families of all abilities and needs.
We’re also thrilled to welcome Chet Garner, creator and host of the Emmy-award winning PBS series The Daytripper, as our emcee for the evening. Known for his deep Texas roots, contagious energy, and passion for storytelling, Chet will guide us through a night full of joy, generosity & purpose.
