Jeffco Crew #050 - Goldens, Skijoring & Oysters
This week marks the 50th edition of the newsletter!
Wowza - thanks for being here, and for telling your friends. And for all the nice feedback.
I'm excited for this year, it's gonna be even better than last year.
Let's get into it, shall we?
👌 Crew Bits
Trying out a new notes section here, as a lot of stuff I come across isn't necessarily an event. I also get all kinds of tips and insights from ya'll which could find their way here.
This private oyster and wine pairing dinner collab between Jeffco's Tom's Seafood and Berkeley fave Lucy's Burger Bar seems like a whole vibe.
I don't do a ton of 'coming up soon' stuff but Goldens in Golden is just a cult classic, feel-good ball of joy, so don't forget it's February 7th!
Sad news, as they were a big help to our family, but Allergy Free Baking Co is closing end of month. Get it while you can!
Skijoring is baaaaaack. The main event in Leadville isn't until March but did you know there are events all over the Front Range? (Did you know skijoring was one word? Me neither.)
👋 Did you like that section? Let me know!
