Kifowit Hosting Third-Thursday-Talk on "Staycations"

AURORA, Ill. – To share information with area residents about affordable vacation destinations available in Illinois, state Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, will host a “Staycations” seminar on Thursday, April 16 at 6 p.m. at the Aurora Public Library, 555 S. Eola Rd, in Aurora.

We have the best of both worlds here in our state, which means we can enjoy the conveniences of urban areas and the peace and serenity that comes from visiting one of our great state parks.”
