Why Join the DAR?           

The Daughters of the American Revolution is a society to perpetuate the memory and spirit of the men
and women who achieved American independence, to promote the development of an enlightened public
opinion, and to foster patriotic citizenship.  Over two hundred years ago, American patriots fought and
sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy today. As a member of DAR, through participation in the Society’s various
