Snowshoeing and hot chocolate – a match made in Golden

Kicking up my arts and cultural side a notch in Golden
From ballets to plays and big name musical acts, this town has it all.
Before moving to Golden I probably averaged one artsy-type event a year, two if you count my daughter’s dance recitals. Mamma Mia, the Nutcracker, A Christmas Carole — that was about as adventurous as I got.
