Families are made to feel welcome. There are
programs designed specifically for all levels of
play and "Social Golf" is very much encouraged;
whether it is couples tournaments, interclub
golf and dining events, fun evening events or
night time golf. The Aurora Women's Golf
Association (AWGA) provides activities for those
ladies who take their golf seriously and those
who enjoy the social interaction.
 The
Junior golfer is not just tolerated but actively
encouraged and the Club's annual Junior Golf
Program attracts over 70 participants every
year.
But golf is not the only activity at Aurora;
once Memorial Day comes around the Pool becomes
a very busy place. There is an active swim
program with lessons available for all ages and
 the
"AurorAquatics" swim team is actively involved
in competition with neighboring clubs.
Although golf is the primary focus of the club's
membership, Dining, Social and Swimming
activities are also very much a part of life at
Aurora. The clubhouse and pool were completed in
1995 and the clubhouse provides quality dining
facilities for golf and social members alike.
A wide variety of social events take place
for members and their guests throughout the
year. In the summer months the patio is a
popular place for cookouts or simply to enjoy a
cool drink in a relaxed atmosphere.
 The
club's Grill Room and Dining Room provide
opportunities for a variety of dining and kids
are welcomed and have their own menu. Kids
are also catered to through a visit from Santa
Claus during the Christmas season and the
 Easter
Bunny makes a welcome appearance in the spring.
In the fall Halloween brings it own special
event.
Adults can enjoy Texas Hold 'em nights
and dining and entertainment events such as a
Jimmy Buffet Pool Party, Valentines
Dinner Dance, or special New Year
Eve Dining. The respective Men's and
Ladies' Member-Member and Member-Guest golf
tournaments are also major features on the
social calendar.
Whether your passion is competitive golf or
playing the occasional round with good friends,
social events, family fun or quality dining,
consider one of the available accommodating
membership plans at Aurora.

About Aurora Golf & Country Club...
or
over 80 years Aurora Golf & Country Club has
been one of Northeast Ohio's most scenic and
challenging golf courses. Aurora Country Club
opened for play in 1925 with 9 holes. The other
nine holes were completed in the following year. In 1943 the club was purchased by
Harold 'Pappy' Paddock, Sr.
and the members purchased the
club from him in the late 60s; it has remained
member-owned ever since.
Arnold
Palmer once battled the course while
competing in this PGA event, and along with
Bruce Devlin and Charlie Coody,
still holds the course record of 64. The record
was equaled in 2003 by the Club's then Head
Professional, Gary Trivisonno. The
1990's saw many changes at Aurora. Of greatest
significance was the replacement in 1995 of the
old original clubhouse with a modern
facility. At the same time the Swimming Pool and
Pool house were replaced and a new automatic
irrigation and sprinkler system was installed in 1998/9.
While
outsiders view Aurora as a real test of golf skills,
members of all handicap levels agree that the course
is fun to play and playing it never gets boring.
Club members benefit from accommodating tee times
and enjoy the par 71 golf course, with it's
picturesque fairways, woodland, streams and the
magnificent roaming landscape. Members also
enjoy a full range of Instructional Programs and a
fully stocked Pro Shop.
