Shopping Hours will be 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. everyday, with extended hours on Thursdays and Weekends.
Whether you’re a runner or a walker, come, be active, and join this fun community event to support Golden High School! All money raised by Demon Dash will benefit Golden High School students by funding technology and co-curricular activities such as clubs and athletics.

For over 45 years, the Golden Civic Foundation’s Annual Auction has been the event of the year for prominent members of the Golden community who love our town.
This event is the primary fundraiser for the Foundation’s grant program. Through the contributions of many businesses and individuals in our community, in the past 45 years the Civic Foundation has provided over $5.1 million to support charitable organizations, public schools, museums and cultural centers in the greater Golden area.
We’re ramping up to have this year’s auction be the pinnacle event kicking off your holiday season! While honoring our past traditions, we’ll also introduce some fun additions including mobile bidding, while extending the evening to include dancing and live music!
The evening’s music will include The Six Million Dollar Band. Get your dancin’ shoes ready!
