Today's DAR
Members and Guests, welcome to the 132nd Continental Congress!
We will “Celebrate Stars & Stripes Forever” by honoring many outstanding individuals and groups for their dedicated service and fabulous achievements. Please note the wonderful work of our Daughters and use their new ideas and programs in your chapters, state societies and local communities.
Don’t miss the opportunity to attend and learn about the annual business of our society. Utilize the Congress App for any updates to our schedule. Other helpful sources of additional information are our 132nd Continental Congress website, the Congress Herald, and the biographies of the Candidates for Vice President General and Honorary Vice President General. There are several opportunities available to support the National Society through Special Giving, as well as shopping at the DAR Store, the Insignia Store, the Junior Shop and the DAR Museum.
Our President General Pamela Wright and our Executive Committee have made extensive plans for an awesome Continental Congress with our hard-working staff, notably the Office of the President General, Liz Partridge; the Public Relations Department, Bren Landon, Amanda DeFrancesco, Winnie Litchfield; and especially to the Congress Coordinator, Rachel Newdorf.
Our heartfelt appreciation to the 21 Congress Committee Chairs who assist in the countless details for our every success. You can meet them here. Our DAR volunteers are making your experience “Sparkle.”
This week’s sessions, programs and events will inspire you to carry on our mission of God, Home and Country. We hope you will make new life-long friendships and be motivated to get more involved. Let us join with enthusiasm in this “Celebrate Stars & Stripes Forever” 132nd Continental Congress!
