As a DAR member, you will find friendship, enthusiasm, and fun! The CheyenneMountain Chapter, NSDAR, was organized in October 2011. The chapter is named for Cheyenne Mountain which “is a triple-peaked mountain in El Paso County, Colorado that was named for the Cheyenne people.

The Cheyenne Mountain Chapter usually meets the first Saturday  morning of each month, September through May in the northern part of Colorado Springs. Our meetings include patriotic exercises, chapter business, and historical, educational, and patriotic and service programs and projects. During the summer we have tours and social events.
