GOLDEN HISTORY MOMENT
37 Years Ago
The November 25, 1986 Golden Transcript announced that the Leadership Golden Alumni Association had just released a Christmas ornament, featuring a drawing of Castle Rock by acclaimed Golden artist Hal Shelton. Sales of the ornaments helped fund the following year’s Leadership Golden class.
The fund-raiser was successful enough that they repeated it the following year–and every year since. Leadership Golden is tuition free, run entirely with volunteer labor and funded entirely by Christmas tree ornaments!
The earliest ornaments are scarcer than hen’s teeth, but you can start your collection now by purchasing the 2023 ornament at the Golden Visitors Center, the Red Wagon Gift Shop (map), or from any current class member.
Thanks to the Golden History Museum for providing the online cache of historic Transcripts, and to the Golden Transcript for documenting our history since 1866!
