An Evening with Al Roker and

Courtney Roker Laga

(Course 13190)

Thursday, April 3, 2025

7 to 8:30pm at Scarsdale Middle School

$50 (cookbook included in course fee)

If you have not already registered, don't miss your chance to gather with fellow SAS students and meet the world's most famous weatherman, Al Roker. He and his daughter, Courtney Roker Laga, will be discussing their new family cookbook, Al Roker's Recipes to Live By in conversation with Jonathan Aubrey, owner of the Scarsdale restaurant Micheline.

Rejoice in and relate to the Roker family rituals while thumbing through the Roker family recipe box. Roker's amusing anecdotes explain why he writes that "Food is the narrative that has shaped so much of who I am, and it’s the source of my warmest memories."

Registration remains open for this special community event on Thursday, April 3, 2025, at 7pm at Scarsdale Middle School. Mark your calendar and sign up today.

Please note: Registration includes a copy of the cookbook.

As a reminder, spring/summer registration is open to all. We are continuing to add classes to round out next semester's offerings. Upcoming eblasts will preview highlights of our plans.

Our spring/summer printable flipbook will be available soon. Until then, the fall/winter flipbook is still posted and includes all of the courses slated to begin through the last full week of March. Please browse online and reserve your priority seats for next semester!
