I went out after work today to Golden Ponds and saw 2, possibly 3 (only saw 2 at the same time), tan-striped White-throated Sparrows in the cattails along the Greenway trail heading off to the east. They were hanging out with a cluster of Song Sparrows and American Tree Sparrows. Pictures below. I apologize for the poor quality, but the light was fading.

Ah, looks like these are Swamp Sparrows. Thanks, Brandon!

I think the top picture is a white-throated sparrow. I agree with Brandon on the other pictures.

To clarify, the sparrows are in Boulder County.
