Leadership Golden, Whitewater, and Wheels

Leadership Golden is an interesting and educational experience, now in its 34th year. This unique tuition-free program holds sessions September through May that introduce Golden residents to City government, history, parks and recreation, education, the arts, and more.  If you haven’t gone through the Leadership Golden program, you should.  You can apply online, but if you would like to meet some graduates and learn more about the program, plan to attend their meet & greet tomorrow night from 5:30-7 at the Old Capitol Grill & Smokehouse.  Learn more….
