Chapter Meetings

We encourage anyone interested in joining DAR to attend one of our meetings to better understand the DAR organization and especially the Elizabeth Ross Chapter.

Meetings are in-person and virtually.

The Elizabeth Ross Chapter meets monthly. Meetings are held February, March, April, May, June, August, September, October, November.

Meetings include social time and business issues. Guest speakers, as well as members, provide interesting programs relating to a wide variety of subjects, i.e. community projects, lineage and genealogical research, history, and current issues of concern.

The meeting is followed by refreshments and fellowship.

The Elizabeth Ross Chapter is an active chapter. The chapter promotes historic preservation, education and patriotism. Awards are given throughout the year for winners of the DAR Good Citizens contest, American History Essays, ROTC, Conservation and Community Service.

The Chapter's anniversary is celebrated every November at an annual luncheon.

Prospective members are welcome and assistance is available in filling out DAR application papers. We are here to help. For further information, please contact the chapter.
