My Garage Guy

Boot scoot to your heart's content at Stampede, Aurora's favorite country dance club. The nightlife venue not only offers an expansive dance floor and an excellent musical selection spun by expert DJs, but you'll also find a very well-stocked bar, an inviting patio and even some pool tables to enjoy. Plus, there's a great menu of munchies to help satisfy the appetite you're very likely to work up when you hit the floor!

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.

If you're feeling lucky, then make plans to take a casino trip from Aurora to Black Hawk and Central City. This fun attraction is only a short 35 mile drive from Aurora, and you can enjoy gambling in Central City and Black Hawk. Central City is commonly referred to as the "Richest Square Mile on Earth" as it was a key area during the mining boom. Perhaps you'll strike gold of a different sort when your slot machine hits the big jackpot!
