Great Stink 2, Golden Weekends, and Many Upcoming Events at Foothills Art Center

A Brief Follow-Up on the Great Stink
Yesterday, I wrote about Coors’ wastewater treatment plant and provided some numbers that you could call if you were concerned about the odor. At this week’s Sustainability Board meeting, Golden resident and air quality expert Jeremy Nichols presented a letter to the board about the odors from Coors’ wastewater treatment plant. In it, he emphasized that the plant emissions may present health hazards as well as reduced quality of life. If you’re following this topic, you might want to review the letter.


Golden Weekends are ending after this weekend. Visit downtown Golden tonight from 5-8PM to enjoy the music of Jubilant Bridge (dulcimer, duo vocal) and Britta K (pop covers, Disney hits). There will be free carriage rides tonight and tomorrow night from 6-8PM.
