Representatives from the three levels of Golden schools (Elementary, Middle School and High School) and the Central Administration for Jefferson County Schools (Superintendent and/or Area Administrator) take part in this session. Other alternative school programs will be represented as well. The format for the evening can vary, but recently an open forum has proven to be effective. The panel answers questions about their particular part in educating our youth as well as education in general.  

In this session a general overview of the Colorado School of Mines will be presented as well as a look at the facilities master plan, insights into student life, and an explanation of special programs and continuing education. Other area schools of higher education might also be represented.

This is a memorable session. It is usually held at the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office, and the evening may end with a tour of the detention facility.  Presenters for this session most often include a First Judicial District Judge, the Police Chief and the District Attorney. This is a full evening of extremely interesting information regarding our justice system from several angles.

In the past, the Director of the Foothills Art Center and the Executive Director of Miners Alley give lively presentations on their responsibilities and facilities.  Other programs focusing on the Arts in the Golden community have been added into the program as well. Although this session has been held in various places, the favorite has been the Foothills Art Center.

So you want to be on the City Council, maybe even the Mayor!  Or perhaps you just want to address the council, pro or con, on a given issue. Well, here is your chance! The session is held in Council Chambers and the evening consists of a "mock" council meeting discussing a current city-related issue. The class members are given roles to play (council member, mayor, citizen~pro, citizen~con). Background material is provided to make the role playing easier. Let the meeting come to order!

The purpose of this evening is to introduce the class to volunteer opportunities in the Greater Golden area. The format varies from year to year but always includes time to hear class project presentations and discuss the LG class members’ learning experiences.

CONGRATULATIONS! You and a guest are invited to dinner and a special night to end the LG  year. This is a celebration of your graduation and year-long accomplishments along with your first alumni meeting. During the meeting new officers may be elected, our financial statement will be presented, and new Steering Committee members from the class of 2024 may be offered a position.
