There's always something good happening in Golden.
Don't miss any of it!

 

 

The Golden High School and Colorado School of Mines both graduated their seniors this past weekend.  Non-seniors at GHS are having finals this week, so be kind to high school kids!  They will finish for the year on Friday.

D'Deli is opening its creekside operation, located behind the Pioneer Museum on 10th St., this week.  This is the place to have lunch or ice cream in downtown Golden during the summer months.  The views are spectacular!
