It was a beautiful day for the Town of Urania’s annual homecoming event held Saturday, April 13. Many attended the event featuring children’s activities, vendors with unique items for sale along with food, and of course lots of visiting. Along with locals sharing in the time, several also traveled back home from far away. The Town of Urania thanks everyone who participated from vendors to attendees.
