Residents looking for something cool to do this summer have an indoor option with a summer learning series at the Property Owners and Residents Association in Sun City West.
Dawn Exarhopoulos, PORA education program, said the series has something to offer people looking for something to do. She said with approximately 45% of the Sun City West community gone for the summer, this series is a way for people to get together.
This series is available to PORA members at no cost. Videos last about 30 minutes followed by discussions. The series is offered 10-11:15 a.m. and 12:30-1:45 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Monday covers national parks. Wednesdays covers the history of the American west, and Tai chi is offered 12:30-1:45 p.m. Fridays.
