Golden showed itself at its best yesterday, with two events demonstrating the generosity and volunteerism that are so prevalent in this community. The Golden Civic Foundation held its grants distribution luncheon at the Golden Hotel. Thirty-Five Golden non-profit organizations received money to help them with their missions. The grant money was raised at the Foundation’s annual auction last fall, with the help of many generous Golden businesses and individuals. Visit the Civic Foundation’s website to see how the funding will be used by our community schools, museums, and other cultural, charitable, and civic organizations.
In the evening, the Chamber and the Golden Bowl hosted the 7th annual Scrambowl. Hundreds of people converged on the bowling alley to have fun and raise money to pay for the holiday lights along South Golden Road. See our facebook page for photos of the event.
