DAR Magazine Committee
Diana Kading, Chairman
All ISDAR members should be proud of our
award-winning DAR Magazine, American
Spirit. The wonderfully entertaining
features and rich photos are hallmarks of this
outstanding publication, which is a
fascinating read for those interested in
history, genealogy, patriotism and education.
A DAR member's subscription to American
Spirit also includes copies of the Daughters
newsletter, which provides up-to-date news,
committee information and actions of the
National Board of Management.
Chapter Regents, along with Chapter
Magazine Chairs, should encourage every member
to subscribe to these wonderful periodicals.
Promote the magazine and newsletter by
bringing recent copies to meetings, workshops
and conferences and urge members to subscribe
or renew. Increased circulation not only helps
to defray our costs, but also attracts
interest from outside advertisers.
Subscriptions to American Spirit
aren't limited to just DAR members, but can be
a wonderful gift for a local library, school,
care center, friend or family member. The
magazine appeals to so many people; why not
share the message and promote this superb
publication?
An annual subscription to this bi-monthly
magazine is only $18 — that's less than $3 per
issue! Not only is the magazine a wonderful
piece of reading material, it's also a really
great bargain! To subscribe, you can use a
subscription card (one was placed in each
chapter's mailbox at Board of Management);
visit www.dar.org/americanspirit
or call 1-866-327-6242.
Consider celebrating your successes by
submitting information releases to the Daughters
newsletter. A great way to share the
information is through the "With the Chapters"
feature of the Daughters newsletter,
and the submission of articles of interest is
always encouraged. High-quality photographs,
especially those that are action shots, are
particularly helpful. One submission per year
per chapter is accepted, and there is no
charge. Submissions are limited to 200 words
and may be edited for space, clarity, and
style. Simply send your item to newsletter@dar.org
Best wishes for a fantastic chapter year!
