Chapter Meetings

The Abigail Adams Chapter, NSDAR, meets monthly, September through June. If you would like to attend one of our meetings, please contact our chapter regent

Most chapter meetings combine patriotic exercises with organizational business and educational programs. Many of our members are skilled presenters. Chapter members presented a program series, "Who Do You Think You Are?" in which members shared stories from their genealogical research. Nothing is as fascinating as someone sharing what they love!

We also invite special interest speakers to share their expertise. We make time for celebrations of all kinds, from Abigail Adams' birthday to a member's 50th anniversary in NSDAR. We share information, work on our special projects, and just have fun. And we try to do a "road trip" every year.
