Imagine helping your neighbors and fellow residents on what could be the worst day of their lives. The Golden Fire Department (GFD) is in search of men and women who live in Golden who want to become part of the city’s amazing team of volunteer firefighters.
By joining the GFD, you learn much more than how to put out fires. You will learn medical rescue techniques, high angle rescue, swift water and ice rescue, how to save people from car crashes, and much more. You will be helping your neighbors, friends and fellow residents in one of the most long-standing and honorable ways possible for Golden volunteers.
Do you want to learn more about what it takes and if you would be the right fit for the GFD? Join us for one of two open houses to meet the staff and volunteers and get all of your questions answered. Come enjoy free food and refreshments and let us get to know you! If you cannot make it to an open house, feel free to contact Capt. Jeanette Kehoe at 303-215-8888.

In 2011, the idea of Coffee with a Cop was born in a small California town. Since then, there have been thousands of these coffee gatherings in all 50 states and even in 14 different countries. Golden Police participated in the past, but it fell off the radar in recent years. Now, Golden Police officers want to bring it back to our city.
“I believe it is going to be a good thing to bring this event back to Golden,” said event organizer Corporal Adam Lanning. “Many of our citizens like to speak and talk to officers and this just gives them another opportunity.”
Join the Golden Police Department for Coffee with a Cop from 7 to 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 3 at Café 13, 1301 Arapahoe St. The owners of Café 13 have graciously agreed to host the event and provide free coffee and pastries to anyone who comes. There is no agenda and no speeches, just open and honest communication in a comfortable environment. We hope to see you there!
This is a great opportunity to talk with representatives and residents of the South Neighborhoods, as well as any issue related to the “good of Golden.”
Meet at 10:30 a.m. at Bean Fosters, located at 720 Golden Ridge Road.
For details, call Councilor Saoirse Charis-Graves at 303-709-7529 or scharisgraves@cityofgolden.net.

The Golden Civic Foundation Auction and Gala brings together Goldenites for a night of fun and to raise money for our town. This year, the event has moved to the Colorado School of Mines Lockridge Arena in order to accommodate the large number of guests. The sock-hop themed event begins at 5 p.m. and includes dinner, a cash bar, live and silent auctions, and live music by the Rockslide dance band. Get ready to rock around the clock!
The funds from the Gala and Auction support the Golden Civic Foundation’s Community Grant Program. Over the past 43 years, this program raised more than $5.3 million, all of which was reinvested back into the Golden community to support charitable organizations, public schools, museums, and cultural centers in the area.
Tickets for the event can be purchased at GoldenCivicFoundation.org/gala-auction. You can also call 303-279-9169 or email Executive Director Heather Schneider at Heather@GoldenCivicFoundation.org with any questions.
This event sells out every year, so don’t wait to get your tickets!
