Town Park, one of Aurora's favourite green spaces, also marked its 150th anniversary with an old-fashioned afternoon of family fun, before Music in the Park took over with a tribute to Heart. Here, youngsters who decorated their bikes in a friendly competition display their rosettes. Auroran photos by Glenn Rodger Before Saturday morning's traditional Canada Day parade, kids were invited to leave their mark outside the Aurora Public Library with chalk drawings wishing Canada a Happy Birthday. Following the Parade, festivities shifted to Lambert Willson Park for a full day of fun and an evening of music and fireworks. Here, MP Kyle Peterson, Aurora Mayor Geoff Dawe, and Ulrika Liljeberg, Mayor of Leksand, Sweden, Aurora's Twin Town, cut the Sesquicentennial cake. A backdrop of the Parliament Buildings was a popular spot for group shots and selfies.
