The Railroad Museum will host one of their popular “Colorado Rails and Cocktails” sessions tonight.

Relax, have a beverage, and travel back to a time when railroads shaped the American West. Doors open at 5:30, the bar opens at 6, and the presentation starts promptly at 6:30PM. Admission is $20 for members and $25 for non-members. You must be 21 or older to attend. Learn more….


Are you planning to attend the March 8th International Women’s Day Luncheon?  The deadline to buy tickets is Sunday, March 4th. This year’s keynote speaker is Brynn Watson from Lockheed Martin. Attendees will also hear from Marjorie Sloan, Mayor of Golden; Candace Coolidge, Deputy District Attorney – First Judicial District and Coordinator for the new Family Justice Center; and Kristi Pollard, President & CEO, Jefferson County Economic Development Commission. Awards will be given for Innovator Woman of the Year and Volunteer Woman of the Year, as well as awards for the Girls in STEM competition. I wouldn’t normally mention this event, because it takes place in Lakewood, but the City of Golden is sponsoring the event. Learn more and buy tickets.
