There's so much to explore on Main Street this fall!
 Auburn is rich with history — from historical Main Street to the artifacts preserved throughout White River Valley Museum — I am excited to share these stories with all of you each week.
(Image courtesy of White River Valley Museum)
Les Gove Park’s facilities have come a long way! This photo from the 1970s shows the park’s original playground, which was located close to a cement wading pool. Following a large community fundraising effort, the award-winning Discovery Playground opened in 2010, providing the community with a large, fully accessible playground to replace the older equipment. The old wading pool also got a glow-up – it is now the popular splash park that helps keep families cool all summer long.
