City to send gifts to Aurora military service personnel
AURORA–The city will once again send gifts to Aurora residents in active military service who are stationed in the United States or overseas. Service personnel will receive a one-pound box of mixed nuts and a card in time for the holidays. The mixed nuts are provided by the Kiwanis Club of Aurora.
“Our service men and women have chosen to unselfishly give of their time, and in some cases, risk their lives, for our country,” said Mayor Tom Weisner. “We want each of them to know how much we appreciate their service.”
Names and mailing addresses of Aurora citizens in active service may be phoned in to the Mayor’s Office of Special Events at 630-844-4731 weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or e-mailed to syoung@aurora-il.org.
The deadline for submitting names is Friday, Nov. 13.
