Not even the entire Denver Metro area is included. My wife works in Denver county but I live and work in Adams county which neighbors Denver county so I can’t open an account. Seems like they’re trying to limit this to people that go to the School of Mines and live close to Golden, CO.
I might try this out on Friday. If i do, i’ll report back with findings. The golden branch is very close.
Thanks, T!
