The Fort Larned Chapter NSDAR meeting was held at the Jordaan Library on Sept. 10. Regent Donna Campbell opened the meeting by leading the group through the DAR ritual, The Pledge of Allegiance, The American Creed, and the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution.

Donna shared an article from a supplement to American Spirit magazine, “Rise up in Service to Your Community,” by our newly elected President General of NSDAR Denise Van Buren.

Members were asked to help support local veterans by attending the monthly Taco Tuesday at the VFW usually on the second Tuesday of the month.
