A hands-on build day for future podcasters. Walk in with an idea, walk out with your podcast name, format, platform, and launch plan.

You have a podcast idea. This is the day it stops being an idea.

This is a build day, not a lecture. You’ll work through your name, your format, your platform, and your plan right there in class. Bring a laptop and you can have your hosting platform set up before class ends.

Who this is for:
Business owners, creatives, and anyone in Northern Colorado who’s been thinking “I want to start a podcast” for longer than they’d like to admit.

An Evening of Elegance, Impact, and Community

The Hope Grows Here Gala is the premier annual fundraising event benefiting Crossroads Safehouse & Services. Each year, community leaders, business partners, advocates, and generous supporters gather for an evening dedicated to one clear purpose: ensuring survivors of domestic violence in Northern Colorado have access to safety, justice, and long-term stability.

This signature event fuels the core programs of Crossroads Safehouse & Services and advances bold initiatives designed to strengthen our region’s coordinated response to domestic violence.

The Hope Grows Here Gala is not simply a celebration. It is a strategic investment in safety, accountability, and lasting change.

Each year, the Weld Community Foundation’s Spread the Good Luncheon brings our community together in a unique way, celebrating the spirit of philanthropy through inspiring experiences.

There are stories that carry across generations—of the courage of those who first arrived, the vision of those who built, and the quiet faithfulness of those who chose to stay and serve.

In celebration of Colorado’s 150th birthday and our nation’s 250th, the Weld Community Foundation is honored to present Legends of Weld County, the theme of this year’s Spread the Good Luncheon. Through storytelling, music, poetry, and Chautauqua-style performance, we will encounter the lives of pioneers, founders, and community-builders whose courage shaped the land and people we know today. These living portraits of history will invite us to reflect on where we have come from and the enduring spirit that continues to guide our community forward.

Thank you for considering this invitation to an afternoon of inspiration and connection, as we honor those who came before and imagine the legacy we will leave behind.

How is our region growing—and what does it mean for your business?

Growth doesn’t happen by chance. It happens by design.

Join business leaders, elected officials, and regional experts for the Carbon Valley Chamber’s annual State of the Region, where we’ll explore the decisions, investments, and partnerships shaping the future of Carbon Valley.

Rather than looking at growth through a single lens, this year’s event will explore how decisions in one area ripple across the entire region. From transportation infrastructure and economic development to housing,  workforce, and regional collaboration, hear directly from the leaders making decisions today that will impact our communities and businesses for years to come.

Boulder, Larimer and Weld County Clerks panel discussion. Learn how your ballot is processed, how voter roles are managed and how the Clerks work to insure the integrity of our election.

Fork Around & Find Out is the first Restaurant Week in Greeley history, introducing two full weeks of tasty tourism across the city from Monday, October 19th – Sunday, November 1st, 2026. The event celebrates Greeley’s diverse food and beverage scene by bringing new and returning customers to local establishments through curated specials. Restaurants, food trucks, coffee shops, distilleries, breweries, bakeries, and other food and beverage businesses in Greeley are thinking outside the menu, serving up limited-time specials for $15, $25, or both.

The City of Greeley, the Downtown Development Authority, the Greeley Chamber of Commerce, Visit Greeley, and other partners have collaborated to curate an event so unapologetically delicious, it’ll knock your napkin off.
