What We Do

What We Do

As our nation approaches the 250th anniversary of the signing of The Declaration of Independence in 2026, there is no better time to connect with the legacy of  those who built this country and to consider joining a community of women who actively honor and preserve that legacy.                                        

The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) is a non-political, volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to historic preservation, education, and patriotism. For over 130 years, DAR members have proudly supported our veterans, preserved historical landmarks, promoted civic engagement, and encouraged the study of American history in communities across the nation.

America 250 offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reflect on our shared past and to help shape a strong future. As a member of DAR, you will be part of this historic celebration—through service projects, commemorative events, and educational outreach that inspire the next generation of patriots.

Cheyenne Mountain Chapter meets on the 1st Saturday on the month, 10:00 – noon, September through May. During the summer we have socials, tours, and other activities. We also participate in the Veterans’ Day Parade, Constitution Week, and many service opportunities. We invite you to join with us in service.

Together, we can celebrate America’s 250th and continue the legacy of service, sacrifice, and sisterhood that defines the Daughters of the American Revolution. Let’s Connect. Empower. Serve.
