This Isn’t Just Another Awards Event.
This is WOW — Women of Worth.

Join us for this inaugural bold, high-energy celebration honoring the women of Dripping Springs who lead, lift, and inspire!

This isn’t your typical awards luncheon.


This is a moment. A movement. A full-bodied celebration of women who are showing up, rising up, and lighting the way for others.

​

Dripping Springs isn’t just supporting women… it’s quietly being led by them.

 

The Women of Worth Awards (WOW Awards) were created to recognize, celebrate, and elevate the extraordinary women who make this town thrive. They were created to honor the incredible women of Dripping Springs who are lifting communities, overcoming challenges, leading businesses, and inspiring everyone around them simply by being who they are.

 

​Because here’s the truth:

​
These women deserve a celebration of their own.

​​

Not tucked into a big-city event.

​

Not blended into someone else’s spotlight.

​​

Front and center. Fully seen. Deeply celebrated.

​

It's Time for the Women of Dripping Springs to Have Their Own Spotlight!

There is a powerful story unfolding in Dripping Springs—and it is being written by women. In August, the Women of Worth Awards (WOW Awards) will take the stage at the stunning Canyonwood Ridge event venue, honoring the women who lead, lift, and shape this community in ways both visible and unseen.

​

Created to recognize, celebrate, and elevate the incredible women who shape this community, the WOW Awards shine a spotlight on those who lead, lift, inspire, and quietly change lives every single day.

​

From bold business owners and visionary leaders to the quiet volunteers, caregivers, and connectors who hold the fabric of the community together, the WOW Awards honor women across all walks of life.

Because in Dripping Springs, women are not just participating… they are leading.

​

​

Why Dripping Springs? Here are some fun facts:

  • a woman leads the local school district

  • a woman serves as City Administrator, with another woman as Deputy City Administrator

  • a woman leads the Chamber of Commerce

  • a woman leads the Tourism Bureau

  • two women co-lead one of the city’s most beloved traditions, Christmas on Mercer, and bring the joy of rides to our Founders Day Festival

  • a woman manages Dripping Springs Ranch Park

  • women reporters are covering our news, publishing a local newspaper, and running local publications

  • Women are running non-profits, volunteering and so much more!

​

Yes, beyond titles and roles, countless women are showing up every day—building businesses, being moms, supporting families, volunteering quietly, and creating the kind of community people want to call home.

​

We are at a time when women need to be celebrated, seen, valued, and lifted up more than ever—not just for what they do, but for who they are and how they show up. And here in Dripping Springs, that story is everywhere you look. This event is a way of saying—we see you, we celebrate you, and your impact matters.
