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.

Be sure to come see us on Sunday the 16th, from 11a-5p, at the 42nd Annual Old Washington Street Festival!

All are invited to a celebration of the enduring legacy of the Constitution featuring BSU Alexander M. Bracken Distinguished Professor of History, Dr. Nicole Etcheson who will delve into Revising the Work of the Founders: The Reconstruction Amendments. 

"The Civil War caused Americans to believe that the Founders' work had been imperfect. They revised the Constitution by adding amendments to free enslaved people, granting them citizenship and rights, including the vote. Why did the post-Civil War generation write the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments?"

Sponsored by the Paul Revere Chapter (Daughters of the American Revolution) celebrating Constitution Week (September 17-23) with The League of Women Voters of Muncie-Delaware County.
