One of the most popular new SARPA activities has been our annual lecture series, where we have sponsored free lectures on a variety of topics of interest to Summit residents, ranging from solar energy to the history of the street.
We are especially excited about this year’s series, which will be hosted by the Germanic-American Institute at 301 Summit. All lectures are free and open to anyone (not just SARPA members, but why not join anyway!) All lectures begin at 6pm and last roughly an hour, so plenty of time to go out and discuss what you learned at some of our fabulous local restaurants afterwards.
