Mayor Sloan needs one Golden child to help her flip the switch that will illuminate our downtown holiday lights at this year’s Candlelight Walk!  Golden residents between the ages of 5 and 10 can fill out an entry form at the Visitors Center.  On November 26th, the Mayor will draw one name to see who gets to make Golden glow!  See the City’s website for the details!
