Description

Fri. 12/9 & Sat.12/10 from 6:30-9pm.: Candlelight at the Ranch @ the National Ranching Heritage Center! Special appearance by Santa till 9pm each night.

The National Ranching Heritage Center will be dressed in all its holiday finery for the 44th Annual Candlelight at the Ranch. Join the tradition on Friday, December 9 & Saturday, December 10 from 6:30 - 9 p.m. at the National Ranching Heritage Center in Lubbock.

Holiday scenes will be recreated in 15 historic structures such as the 1838 El Capote Log Cabin, 1886 XIT Ranch headquarters, 1888 Matador Half-Dugout and 1909 Queen-Anne style Barton House. Visitors will have maps pointing the way to each structure.

Volunteers bring the ranch to life in each structure, play live music, sell hot cocoa, make kettle corn, help Santa with his visitors, serve meals to the volunteers, keep pathways safe, sing Christmas carols, oversee the parking lot and much more.

The lighted pathways are wheelchair and stroller accessible as visitors pass cowboys camped out near their horses and brewing coffee over a campfire. Visitors can purchase refreshments in the decorated 6666 Barn and on the Campbell patio while they listen Christmas music with a Texas swing.

We look forward to celebrating the holiday season with you at the Ranch!
