2024 Golf Day at the Capitol


On April 16th, Golf Day at the Capitol, spearheaded by the Colorado Golf Coalition and Coalition lobbyist Jennifer Cassell of Bowditch & Cassell Public Affairs, was a resounding success. This annual event, hosted at the Colorado State Capitol, fosters engagement with legislators before their session and acknowledges their support for the state’s golf industry. After a hearty breakfast, the Colorado Golf Coalition received commendation during the Senate session for the industry’s invaluable contributions.
