Aurora celebrates our National Spelling Bee celebrity. Twelve-year-old, Vikram Raju, was the runner-up in this year's competition. What better way to recognize someone who has a way with words than by making them "Honorary Junior Library Director." Also this week on Aurora Now, a behind-the-scenes look at election security in Arapahoe County ahead of the June 28th state primary; Aurora hosts a gun buyback event on National Gun Buyback Day; take part in a survey to help Aurora pick our next police chief; and congratulations to an Aurora chef who just won a prestigious James Beard Award. Those stories and many more this week on Aurora Now.
