Purdue University's College of Technology will offer a free workshop Aug. 11 on making homes more energy efficient, and two energy-efficient homes will be open for tours.
Workshop participants will learn about simple improvements they can make to their homes to save energy, said Eric Holt, a graduate teaching assistant in the building construction management program.
They'll also hear about more involved options with renewable energies such as solar and wind.
The workshop will be from 9 a.m. to noon at the Chatham Square community center in Lafayette. Chatham Square is at Greenbush Street and Shenandoah Drive.
Those interested in attending are asked to RSVP to Holt at eaholt@purdue.edu or 765-494-2466.
