“The Spirit of Hospitality Opens  Doors of Opportunity.” 

Let's help this spirit spread throughout our Society with chapters welcoming new members, encouraging inactive members, and expressing appreciation to those who have been steadfast in their service.

May this welcoming spirit open doors of opportunity as we continue our mission of promoting historic preservation, education and patriotism.

DAR's  Purpose

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.
