Area Residents Can Win Fully Loaded Golf Cart As Part Of "Fill The Pool" Fundraiser

The City of Aurora is about $145,000 short of meeting their $1 million fundraising goal.

(Aurora, Ind.) – Area residents can win a fully loaded golf/utility cart by supporting the City of Aurora’s “Fill the Pool” fundraiser.

The City has financed $2.5 million towards the building of the pool, but a one-million dollar fundraising goal to help bring some exciting amenities to the future pool is about $145,000 away from being met - most of which could be covered by a potential grant. 

On Wednesday, the City of Aurora announced that it is not too late to purchase tickets for the chance to win a fully loaded golf/utility cart that retails for $9,199

Tickets are $5 each or five for $20.

Community members may also purchase tickets for a chance to win a homemade wooden Aurora box filled with Bicentennial souvenirs, and a handmade quilt pieced by Sue Turner and quilted by Gloria Hightower.

Tickets may be purchased by calling 812-926-1100, emailing mainstreet@aurora.in.us stop, or at the Main Street Aurora office, 231 Main Street, open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Acceptable forms of payment include cash, check, Venmo, Paypal, etc.
