When the City of Golden bought the old Coors building at 311 10th St, we were left with a lot of extra furniture! Since we plan to demolish the building, we need to get rid of everything inside; and we want our community to get first pick! Stop by from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 10 for a community yard sale. Items for sale include office chairs, filing cabinets, bookcases, office tables, café tables and chairs, and more. The first several customers will also receive a free white board with purchase.

Please note attendees must wear a mask covering their nose and mouth. We will only accept credit/debit cards or exact change (items are marked at $5, $10, $15 or $25 with sales tax included) at this event to minimize contact and social distancing measures will be in place.
