Craig Vickers

LITTLE KNOWN FACT:

I love to volunteer. I have always enjoyed hard physical work, to me it is pretty joyous and that has led to a fair amount of volunteer work for Young Life and various City of Golden (that is where I live) Boards and committees. As a result I have been fortunate enough to pay a small part in the development of my community as well as watch terrific youngsters develop into amazing young adults.

FAVORITE BOOK:

I love reading about and learning about history and what has shaped culture. I loved reading the book 1776 by David McCullough. The incredible course of events and unlikely outcomes that led to our nation’s liberty is the ultimate underdog come from behind victory that is fascinating to me.
