Aurora's emerging arts scene brings forth vibrant theater and visual arts to liven up the city.

Love this place the best because it is clean and well organized. The grilling stations are in a designated spot so people can’t ruin your day at the beach by firing up the grill right next to you on the sand. Very clean water. It’s my happy place!

We saw Ring of Fire in July 2017 at the Vintage Theater. We were mesmerized! The theater only seats 69 so the experience is very intimate. The production was professional and the singers - all of them - were incredibly talented. They had fun, the audience had fun, and we can highly recommend the experience. The theater sells snacks and alcohol and you can bring those purchased items into the theater area. There is free parking on the side. Seating is first-come, first-served and opens 30 minutes before the production begins. If your group is large you many be able to get assigned seats together. Often tickets sell out in advance so I'd advise purchasing them online at least a week before to avoid disappointment.

If you enjoy tasty beer, a great atmosphere, and a friendly staff make sure to visit Launch Pad. Brian and his brother brew outstanding variations with new offerings monthly. I highly recommend the stout offerings, definitely among the best I have tried. Do not miss a visit to Launch Pad, an added bonus is this is a veteran owned and run business. Come out and support small veteran owned business.

Good theatre. Amazingly comfortable, reclining seats. If you go in the evening, it can be a bit pricey. If you go in the mornings or early afternoons, seats are reasonably priced. Concessions are very pricey but the actual food that you can get delivered to your seat is very good & not that much higher than a restaurant. Very clean and well maintained. Go on Tuesdays because seats are only $5 as well as popcorn & drink.

This is a city reservoir, so water activities are strictly enforced. No swimming, limited boating or fishing. The best thing is that there is a nicely maintained trail all the way around the reservoir. Maybe 1.5 miles. Nice woodsy feel, things to look at. Great for just a quiet walk.
