Jeffco Crew #052 - Ullrgrass, Lasagna & An Adult Spelling Bee
Day late this week due to some other stuff on my plate, but man there's a ton of music happening around Jeffco this week. Like, more than normal.
Maybe related to Ullrgrass throwing down in Golden this weekend? Not sure.
In other news, we took our Christmas tree down this past weekend so now I'm trying to figure out what was previously on our fireplace mantle and what went in the corner of the family room, it's been a while since it wasn't holiday-themed.
Send me pics of your beautifully decorated fireplace mantles.
Not a sentence I thought I'd ever write, but here we are.
Okay, let's get into it!
👌 Crew Bits
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.
Wheat Ridge Christmas tree recycling ends on Sunday!
Great American Beer Festival has announced that they're throwing the event outside next year.
FYI: Many businesses in the area will be shutting down on Friday in solidarity with a nationwide campaign protesting ICE.
The ProRodeo Hall of Fame is movin' out of Colorado after 45+ years here. 🤠 (I'd like to petition for a better cowboy emoji than that one.)
