The city wants to make sure Aurora's kids have a fun and safe summer.  That's why we've launched the "We Are Aurora Youth" program. It gives kids between the ages of 13 and 18-years-old, free admission to several city rec centers during the week. They can play basketball, video games, watch movies, and even learn how to cook. AuroraTV explains how the program works. Also on this show, we take a look at a day in the life of a city park planner; we introduce you to some talented Aurora students who are making rockets and designing miniature golf courses; and we take you to a unique disc golf course at Dry Dock Brewery as they get ready for a fun tournament. Those stories and many more this week on Aurora Now.
