At the Intersection of
Tradition and Innovation

The Saratoga Torch Club is part of the International Association of Torch Clubs, a respected organization founded in 1924 by William Bullock to foster intellectual exchange across professions and disciplines. The network has grown from a single chapter in Minneapolis to more than 50 clubs nationwide.

Founded in 2016, the Saratoga Torch Club hosts Civic Conversations with authors, scientists, artists, community leaders, and change agents of all kinds. We meet monthly for dinner, always on a Monday night. We meet weekly on Monday evenings for Torch Radio, 90-minute conversations in Zoom that, with the help of AI, we promptly publish as “polished transcripts.”
