How do you have a little fun and show off the possibilities of solar power at the same time?  With a concert, of course!  But not just any old concert...one with all of the power provided by solar panels.  This is the 3rd year for SolarRock in Himmel Park, right in the heart of the Sam Hughes Historic Neighborhood.

 

 

Just east of the University of Arizona, Sam Hughes is not only known for its beautiful & eclectic homes:  it is one of the leading communities in the region for implementing Green Building Technology in residential real estate.
