What do a mom, several retirees, and a group of students in Aurora all have in common? They're all Aurora lifeguards,and we'd love for you to join our team, too! The city has come up with a unique way to deal with the national, ongoing lifeguard shortage in hopes we can open all our pools daily this summer. Also on this week's show, the new, two-day a week watering schedule goes into effect May 1 in Aurora; RTD wants you to weigh in on more affordable and easier to understand fares; the global "City Nature Challenge" is coming to town; and AuroraTV's long-time anchor, Wendy Brockman, signs off after a decade on our air. Those stories, and many more, this week on Aurora Now.
