State Regent, 2007-2010 Anne L. Urbaczewski

State Credo: Making new friends and keeping the old through service to "God, Home, and Country."

Any woman eighteen years of age, who descended from a man or woman of unfailing loyalty and aid to the cause of American Independence (1775-1783) is eligible. A prospective member must be able to prove her lineage back to an ancestor who served the American cause during the American Revolution. The Chapter Registrar is prepared to provide advice and assistance in this endeavor, if needed.

Chapter members are women, 18-100+ years of age--business and professional women, homemakers, retirees, mothers of young children, grandmothers, and students.

You may e-mail membership questions to our Membership Chairman (Linnea Bennett).
