If you've been looking for a way to give this season, Coal Creek Meals on Wheels has a $30,000 matching gift from two local donors, Curtis Fleming and an anonymous donor, and donations made Nov. 1 through Dec. 8 will be matched until the full match is reached. CEO Nate Broeckert said volunteers knock on doors across East Boulder County and the Carbon Valley every day. BizWest

Littleton will pause new data center applications for six months, joining Denver, Thornton, Broomfield and Commerce City, after City Council approved the moratorium unanimously on second reading Nov. 3. The pause covers rezoning, site development plans, subdivisions, use approvals, building permits and other approvals while staff study rules for future data centers, and City Attorney Reid Betzing said the city has not received any data center applications.

Turn the bag around
Presented by Sundays For Dogs
Most dog food marketing lives on the front of the bag. Sundays For Dogs wants you to read the back.
Sundays was founded by Dr. Tory, a veterinarian who wanted something better for her own dog, Mabel. Every recipe is made with over 80% real meat and nutrient-rich extracts of fruits, vegetables, seeds, and grains — complete and balanced nutrition for every life stage. If an ingredient sounds like it came from a chemistry lab, it’s not in the bag.
Our readers might be surprised by what is (and isn’t) inside — see the label for yourself and get 30% off your first order with Sundays For Dogs.

Warning: This newsletter may brighten your day
Presented by 6AM City
We hope you’re enjoying what we deliver to your inbox: a feel-good snapshot of what’s happening around town. No doomscrolling, no dry headlines — just real stories, uplifting news, and local happenings that bring our community together.
But here’s the thing: creating meaningful, high-quality local content takes time, heart, and resources. That’s where you come in.
Over the next few days, we’re organizing a fundraising campaign to boost our daily, hyperlocal newsletters, and we’d love your support with a recurring monthly gift. Think of it like buying us a cup of coffee every month. You'll help keep our content free and continue growing a positive local space we can all be proud of. Prefer a one-time gift? That's great, too — every dollar is a high five to our small team and a boost to local news.

NeighborsShout out and thanks to the kids who included my 4 year old grandson in their football game today.
“We were at Silver Creek Park (aka the chicken park) this afternoon and 3 boys (I’m not good at guessing ages) were playing football in the open area next to the hill. He watched a while and finally asked if he could play- they were so kind to him, made him feel great and absolutely made his day. There were a few…”

The Wrap
A cool Boulder morning and a bowl of green chile make a pretty good match. About Boulder, CO rounds up three local spots to try, including Efrain's of Boulder, a family-run restaurant that has been part of the city's restaurant community since 1998. Try a brothy pork chile verde, which the report says offers a different experience from chopped Hatch chiles tucked into a breakfast burrito. Warm and spicy sounds right.
