Every 4th of July celebration, the City's precision rafting teams get ready for a rematch at the annual Mayor's Cup Raft Race. It's a race against time and other City officials! You can expect to see elected officials from Federal Heights, Thornton, Broomfield, Commerce City, and Northglenn as they compete to claim VICTORY in the name of their City. The racecourse starts at the boat dock located on the southwest corner of Webster Lake at E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park. Rafters will paddle their rafts across the lake, around the big Firecracker in the lake, and then back to the boat dock.

Recycling – Paper, Aluminum, Plastic, & Glass
The City of Northglenn is focused on our environment. We have programs designed to keep our planet healthy and to encourage our residents to recycle on a regular basis.
The City has two recycling centers. One is located just behind City Hall at 11701 Community Center Drive. The other is located in the northwest parking lot at Northwest Open Space Park south of 112th Avenue, west of Pecos Street.
At these recycling centers, residents can recycle a variety of items including newspapers, aluminum and steel cans, plastic containers with a #1 or #2 located in the recycling symbol on the bottom, and any color of glass containers. All containers and cans deposited at the center must be empty and have the lids removed. Newspapers, containers or cans should be deposited without plastic bags, paper bags or boxes. Separate waste containers are provided at each site to dispose of empty plastic and paper bags.
