AURORA - Aurorafest has been a long-standing tradition in the village of Aurora - a time to celebrate life and the beauty of the village.

Saturday morning, the celebration kicked off in grand style with the annual Aurora Run.

Crissi Brozon, who along with Bill Mullarney, is a co-organizer of this year's run, and said the run has been going on since at least the 1970s and then was revived in the '90s.
