Welcome to the Blackwater Chapter!
Founded in 1933, the Blackwater chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR)
continues to serve our communities from Davis to Parsons in Tucker
County, West Virginia.
The threefold purpose of the DAR is exactly the same now as when the society was organized in 1890 and chartered by an Act of congress in 1895, to wit: HISTORICAL, EDUCATIONAL and PATRIOTIC.
To amplify:
- HISTORICAL:
- “To promote the memory and spirit of the men and women who achieved American Independence.”
- EDUCATIONAL:
- “To promote, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the General diffusion of knowledge.”
- PATRIOTIC:
- “To cherish, maintain and extend the institutions of American freedom; to foster true patriotism and love of country.”
Contact us for more information or to attend one of our meetings which are held the second Saturday of the month.
