The snow from two weeks ago has melted, and while more rainstorms are brewing once again, our LightHouse Gala team made their way up to Enchanted Hills Camp on a beautiful sunny day this week. The gala will be held in August, and with just five and a half months left to go, our team of organizers traveled up Mt. Veeder to take in all the sights and sounds of camp, to draw inspiration and creativity for our Enchanted Evening Gala.
Together, the team walked the trails of EHC and toured the grounds. The wet winter months have brought new growth and greenery among the burnt trees and remaining remanence of past wildfires. The camp’s beauty and resilience is evident throughout its entire 311 acres. As construction continues on and ideas for future blueprints are being dreamt of, the foundation for a beautiful, accessible and nurturing oasis of empowerment and independence for blind, low vision, and deafblind campers is being built.
Our team can’t wait to recreate the camp experience for our gala guests at the historic Westin St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco’s Union Square Plaza. We cannot wait to share with our community the history of camp, the vision Rose Resnick had when the camp was acquired, and the dreams we aspire to bring to reality. If you would like to be part of this incredible journey, join us for An Enchanted Evening on August 19, 2023. Early-bird discounted tickets are now available on the LightHouse Gala website. You may also contribute to the future of camp by sponsoring the event or by donating auction items. We look forward to sharing a truly enchanting evening together with dinner, dancing, auctions and entertainment, all for the benefit of our beloved Enchanted Hills Camp for the Blind.
