Congratulations Aspen Grove - 2023 Business Of the Year!

More than 130 business and community leaders came together to honor the 2023 Business of the Year and chamber supporters, Friday December 8th at Shift Workspaces in downtown Littleton.

Our live and silent auction raised $12,000 for equipment for Littleton Police Department officers that will be assigned to SET.

The Special Enforcement Team (SET) is a proactive unit that works in the Patrol Division. They have city-wide responsibilities that include pattern and/or hot-spot crime suppression, community outreach/liaisons, special events, and addressing homelessness issues. They are the officers you see on bike patrol and utilizing the department’s ATV in the parks and on the trails.

your leadership and dedication have contributed to the success of your business and your support of the Littleton Community. It is inspiring to see how Aspen Grove has grown under your guidance, and how it continues to positively impact the community. Sales Tax revenues for Aspen Grove through the first 10 months of 2023 exceeded all other areas of the city by more than 8%. Well Done!!!
