It's officially fall now which means Election Day 2025 in Aurora and beyond is fast approaching. We'll give you a behind-the-scenes look at how your ballot stays safe and how you can see the process for yourself.  Also on this week's show, Aurora's city manager has a unique message about our city's infrastructure and why it's so important for all of us to weigh in; a celebration for the groundbreaking of Aurora's new Korean War Memorial; Aurora students take the field with the Denver Broncos; and our friends from the Aurora Animal Shelter join us in studio to show us how easy it is to microchip your pup and why it's so important.  Those stories and many more this week on Aurora Now.
