Summer Reading 2022 – Oceans of Possibilities  

.

SO, YOU THINK YOU KNOW SAXONBURG, PA? 

You are invited to a presentation that highlights the people and heritage of the Saxonburg, Pennsylvania area. Why do some say that Saxonburg is the “birthplace” of the wire rope cable industry? Fred Caesar, the volunteer curator of the Saxonburg Museum, will explain the connection with famous bridge builder John Augustus Roebling (Brooklyn Bridge) and with the history of the first commercial radio station, KDKA. Our neighboring community to the north of Pittsburgh is celebrating several anniversaries this year. Please register for this fascinating program.
