The annual weekend-long Community Pride Days event will be held September 16 and 17 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 1300 Catamount Dr. Bring your non-hazardous and unwanted junk for free disposal by the City!

Participants will be required to show proof of residency at the gate in the form of a State-issued ID. City water bills will NOT be accepted as proof of residency. Unsure if your residence is within city limits? Check out Jeffco.us/awiz/ to find out for sure.

Please note, this year we will NOT be accepting certain items that have been accepted in the past (e.g. paper for shredding and tree limbs). Before you come, please learn more about what is and is NOT accepted this year, and alternative disposal options for the items we cannot accept.

On Halloween, Oct. 31 from 3 to 5:00 p.m., downtown Washington Ave. will be closed to cars and filled instead with tiny zombies, super-heroes and other masked little ones, all ready to fill their trick-or-treat bags in a safe atmosphere with candy provided by local Golden merchants.

Bring your little ones for some sugar-saturated, non-spooky fun!

Experience the beauty of the holiday season with a walk down Washington Ave., candle (or glowstick) in hand, singing carols on Friday, Dec. 1.

Bring a candle or purchase one beforehand from a local vendor.
