Golf in Aurora

Aurora is a Lawrence County city in the Ozark foothills of southwestern Missouri, a community sustained by manufacturing and agriculture in the gently varied terrain between Springfield and the Arkansas border. Lawrence County's diverse agricultural economy of beef cattle, dairy, and grain creates the rural Southwest Missouri context for a small city that has maintained stable employment through regional manufacturing. The surrounding Ozark foothills landscape creates the transitional character between the flat prairie and the more rugged Ozark interior. Missouri's varied geography creates distinct regional characters for each community, and the local golf course reflects the landscape, economy, and community culture of its specific corner of the Show-Me State.
