Wild West Auto Roundup
Jun 13-Jun 13 2009
Washington Avenue
Golden, Colorado 80401
More than two hundred vintage automobiles line Washington Avenue in historic downtown Golden the second weekend of every June. That’s when the annual Wild West Auto Roundup brings to town a great variety of makes and models of vintage cars, muscle cars, hot rods, street rods, original stock cars, trucks, and race cars. Entrants are judged in 14 different categories, including the People’s Pick, an award for the most crowd-pleasing vehicle. If you’re looking for other things to do besides gawk at the cars, this popular event, which attracts upwards of 15,000 visitors every year, also includes live music, kids’ games, rides and entertainment by circus characters, as well as fly fishing and kayaking demonstrations at Clear Creek. Visitors will also want to leave some extra time in their day to wander through town. The Wild West Auto Roundup is organized by the merchants of historic downtown Golden, which features 30 charming retail shops and restaurants, 9 museums, and a variety of cultural attractions. What other downtown area can you do a little shopping, enjoy bike and walking paths, fly fish, kayak, have a little lunch, and still be home in time to make a nice supper and relax at home for the evening?
