We are united in our friendship and are all proud to have an ancestor who contributed to securing the independence of the United States of America and we work to honor those who have served our nation throughout history.

Historic Preservation
The women of DAR work to preserve our cultural heritage in many ways – writing histories, researching and maintaining historical sites, and preserving family lineages and genealogical records and making them public for the future.
Patriotism
Love of country is the inspiration for many DAR activities. From volunteering with veterans in VA hospitals and nursing homes to teaching American Flag etiquette to schoolchildren and new Americans, our members demonstrate patriotism in many ways.
