During the last election some of our politicians covered a lot of miles. They had to be around to support Aurora talent in Newmarket and then drove like mad to get to the other show.<br /> I'm pretty sure I know where they enjoyed themselves more.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506868496663273256.post-91520289392036400872015-01-03T13:21:42.201-05:002015-01-03T13:21:42.201-05:009:58

We have many town programs including private businessess that provide many of these services. So how is it we can justify the money that we do to pay for this center? And I don't understand how we have 2 members of council sitting on the board that have to be tight lipped about their meetings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506868496663273256.post-81152434267355657142015-01-03T12:50:53.138-05:002015-01-03T12:50:53.138-05:0023:28- Maybe we could get Neal Young, Joanie Mitch...23:28- Maybe we could get Neal Young, Joanie Mitchell, and Gordon Litefoot?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506868496663273256.post-43052106021987024232015-01-03T09:58:41.100-05:002015-01-03T09:58:41.100-05:00There is an implication here that Aurorans are too...There is an implication here that Aurorans are too cheap of lazy to travel for entertainment. That is untrue. There have been plenty of them in Clarington during the yearly event there. It is not exactly on our doorstep - nor is it funded by the local town. I expect that the attendance of those from Aurora might even increase when the gathering moves to its new location this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506868496663273256.post-85412818079789923392015-01-03T09:25:44.775-05:002015-01-03T09:25:44.775-05:0023:28

Really, how can you truly appreciate a performance unless you've battled Toronto traffic and paid usurious parking fees, right?<br /><br />Let's just stick with a bedroom community mindset.

Really?.... What part of 10 minutes down the road didn't you understand? And how about the other center 10 minutes up the road in Newmarket? Besides the name Dan Hill, I wonder how many Aurorans know the other 2 performers.

It is an easy drive fromTO and they must appreciate the attention. <br /> I believe we have performances in the theatre all during the year & the numerous summer events simply blow the town away mainly with the country groups.<br /> It does not mean that one should receive special attention IMO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
