  • Daughters of American Revolution December 2017 Meeting 1pm to 12:42pm @ Kennedy Library 1700 W. McGalliard Road

    The December meeting for the Paul Revere Chapter of the NSDAR (National Society of the Daughters of American Revolution) is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m., Thursday, December 14, at the Kennedy Library, 1700 W. McGalliard Road, Muncie. Attendees are asked to make, bring, and share traditional holiday family recipes.

    This meeting is open to all current and potential members of the DAR. The organization consists of ladies 18 years and older who have verified or working towards verifying one or more descendants as a patriot of the American Revolution.

    The NSDAR was founded in 1890 with the local Paul Revere Chapter founded in 1897. The missions of the DAR are patriotism, education, and historic preservation. Today’s DAR chapters interpret those goals in voluntary service to their communities, schools and students, veterans and active duty military. DAR is a not-for-profit, non-religious organization with more than 185,000 members nationally. For further information, contact Registrar Mary Miller at 765-744-9798 or mrody43@att.net to set up an appointment to explore eligibility of one or more of your ancestors as a Revolutionary War patriot.

    Nick is a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey who sees his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. That is until he’s been offered a dream job in Seattle. This news doesn’t sit so well with his grandparents, and thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around. Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma pull out all of the stops, and that includes bringing to dinner the lovely—and single—Caitlin O’Hare.

    In this musical adaptation of Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’, Ebenezer Scrooge is the definition of a miser. He is rich, but completely stingy with his money, and he exploits the good nature of his employee Bob Cratchit. On Christmas Eve, however, Scrooge is in store for a rude awakening when he is visited by the ghost of his old business partner, Jacob Marley, who informs him that he is going to be visited by three ghosts, including the Ghosts of Christmas Past and Present.
