Our chapter meets in January, March,
May, July, September, and November on the
second Saturday of the month. The months
of February, April, June, August, October
and December offer our members time for
committee meetings, gravestone cleanings,
field trips to area historical sites,
participating in parades and community
events, and reading time for our book
club. A chapter newsletter is published
and distributed on the first day of the
“off months” as well. Members are strongly
encouraged to attend State Conference and
Fall Forum. Our members are proud to
support the DAR Good Citizens program and
hold a yearly recognition and tea for
entrants and their families.
Meetings start at 10 a.m. and
include: devotions, patriotic recitations
and song, the reading of the President
General's message, and the National
Defense Committee report. Updates are
presented by the chapter committee
chairmen. Set programs include a January
book club discussion based on a
Revolutionary War themed book, our annual
meeting in March, and an anniversary tea
in May with special remembrances to our
founding members. Presenting innovative
and fun programs related to the DAR tenets
of education, patriotism and historic
preservation is our goal.
Associate members are welcome!
