We host a Lady Veteran's Luncheon each
April, honoring women who have served in
our Armed Forces.
We are active in support of Veteran's
Centers by collecting stamps,
donating personal and household needs
to our local VA Medical Center
and we have participated in the local
Veteran's Day Parades.
Our chapter is involved with the
JROTC in the local high school
We honor a female cadet each year
with an award, and they visit our chapter
meetings several times a year.

Welcome to the Umpqua Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Umpqua Chapter was organized
on
the evening of March 7, 1918, in the parlors of the
Presbyterian Church of Roseburg, Oregon, by Mrs. William Smick, Organizing Regent and Mrs. I.L. Patterson,
State Regent. Umpqua Chapter was the 10th chapter organized
in the State of Oregon.
We meet at noon on the second Saturday
of each month from Sep to May.
If you are at all interested in your heritage,

The objectives of DAR are Historic Preservation, Promotion of Education and Patriotic Endeavor. We
try to fulfill these objectives in our monthly meetings and other activities. We participate in community events, support
our youth, work with and visit our Veteran's Hospital, promote adult literacy and preserve genealogical records to help
perpetuate the memory of the spirit of the men and women who achieved American Independence. Our goal is to cherish,
maintain and extend the institutions of our Country and to aid in securing the blessings of Liberty for mankind.

our
2011-12 program year.
