Things To Do in Aurora, CO
Hammond's Candies
Satisfy your sweet tooth with a visit to Hammond's Candies. The company has been creating some of the world's sweetest candies and confections since 1920. A large part of their continued success is the fact that they have stayed true to their original recipes and careful attention is still given to every aspect of the candy's production. A tour of the facility lasts approximately 30 minutes, and during that time you will see how candy canes and lollypops are made from start to finish. The tours are free and no reservations are required.
Melvin School
Get a feel of what it was like to attend class in a two-room schoolhouse when you visit Aurora's Melvin School. The structure, built in 1922 and named a landmark in 1986, originally served the outlying community of Melvin. In 1949, the structure was carefully moved to make room for the Cherry Creek Reservoir. After being used as a tavern for 17 years, the Cherry Creek Historical Society moved the school to its current location on the grounds of Smoky Hill High School where it continues to be owned and maintained by the Cherry Hill School District.
