Page Committee
Jackie Beard, Chairman
Pages assist the State Regent, state
officers and various committees in the smooth
operation of the spring ISDAR State Conference
and Fall Forum meetings. They serve as
hostesses, door holders, errand runners, flag
bearers, friendly smiles, and helping hands to
all Iowa Daughters in attendance.
The State Regent has lifted the age limit
on paging at ISDAR events during her
administration. On the national level, there
are a variety of opportunities for women
between the ages of 18-40 to serve as pages
during Continental Congress at NSDAR
Headquarters in Washington, DC.
Requirements: Service, courtesy and common
sense are the essentials for excellent paging.
Pages do their volunteer work by choice and
without monetary reward. Pages are noted for
their friendliness, enthusiasm and an
inexhaustible supply of energy. Their duties
and responsibilities are many and varied, but
they are interesting, rewarding and FUN!
Dress Code: White! The reason is two-fold:
first it’s a unified color that instantly
identifies you as a page who’s working and
serving the Iowa Daughters and second, it’s
tradition (and the fact that in a unified
color, pages do not draw attention to
themselves and do not disrupt the
proceedings). Daytime dress code should
include a modestly cut white dress that is
knee length or longer, or a white pants suit,
white gloves and white or nude colored shoes.
Evening dress code can vary depending on the
event so please check with the chairman prior
to packing your suitcase.
Pins: Below are the other various page
pins that you may earn throughout your tenure
of service as a page. Pins can be ordered
through the DAR Insignia Store at shop.dar.org.
Please consider sharing your DAR Sparkle by
serving as a page! It is an amazing way to
Rejoice in our DAR ties of Service and
Friendship!
