National Night Out Tonight

Tuesday, August 6th is National Night Out. Over the last five years, the city of Aurora has encouraged residents to organize events in their neighborhoods. This year 39 events will be held, with all ten wards represented. We would have had 40 events, but Plum Landing had to cancel their event due to safety concerns with construction.

The purpose of National Night Out is to bring residents out, getting to know each other better, build relationships with Aurora’s finest police officers, Aldermen and City Officials. So now it’s up to you to come out and join the fun & festivities. Please check out the locations, stop by even if it’s just to say “hi”. Learn More.

American English Tonight in Aurora

Paul, John, George and Ringo are the four apostles of rock, and while the time of The Beatles playing live may be over, we’ve got four guys who look and sound just like them to take you through the hit music that filled their spectacular career. It all begins with the early years and the game-changing Ed Sullivan performance before moving into their psychedelic era and culminating in the final years of this legendary band. American English is probably the best Beatles tribute band there is, and there’s no better place to experience these masters than RiverEdge Park.
