Keynote Speaker - Jan. 22, 2022

Chet Garner — creator, host, executive producer, and writer of The Daytripper, a five-time Emmy-award-winning program on PBS — will deliver an inspiring keynote address during lunch about finding local respite options and enjoying your life with your loved ones.

Garner was born and raised in Texas and loves storytelling. He brings the same enthusiasm to his speaking events that are seen in The Daytripper and aims to create contagious energy that will have every attendant walk away inspired and excited about Texas, day-tripping, and finding their passion in life. Garner is a graduate of UT-Austin and Baylor Law School. After practicing law for three years, he followed his passion to inspire his fellow Texans to appreciate the beauty, history, and food of Texas.

Nonprofits and businesses that support family caregivers will be onsite to share information about the resources they provide for caregivers and their loved ones.
