🏡 Welcome to issue #2 of the Aurora Newsletter

Hi neighbors,

Last week I sent out the very first Aurora Newsletter — thank you to everyone who checked it out and shared it.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably found yourself jumping between Facebook groups trying to piece together what’s happening around town.

That’s exactly why I started this.

👉 One place for local events
👉 One place for community updates
👉 One place to discover local businesses

Each week, I’ll gather everything I can find and put it right here — simple and easy to keep up with, now spam and free.

If you find it helpful, feel free to forward it to a friend or neighbor. That’s how we grow.

— Peggy Jones

Spring Has Sprung in Aurora 🌼

🌼 Aurora in Bloom

Spring has sprung in Aurora, and it’s starting to feel a little warmer out — the perfect time to get outside, take a walk along the river, and enjoy the town coming back to life.

As you’re out and about this week, it’s also a great time to stop in and visit some of our local businesses and see what’s new around town.
