The Brunswick Town Chapter of
the Daughters of the American Revolution will hold their January 11, 2012
meeting at Trinity United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall on 209 East Nash
Street, Southport, NC. The guest speaker is Fran Carlsen. She will be speaking
about the completion of the master questionnaire, which will be done
electronically. The meeting will begin at 10:00 a.m. It is also the chapter’s
birthday of 36 years. The Brunswick Town Chapter was started in 1976. Brunswick
Town Chapter takes part in other celebrations, which includes the naturalization
program and a flag retirement ceremony. The new citizens are welcomed with
flags and gifts. Our chapter supports the veterans with many activities, and
the members continue to show strong support for our military. We work closely
with our communities, DAR schools, neighborhood schools and the Literacy
Council. We give out Good Citizens and JROTC awards. We have scholarship and
essay contests, and we have Native American projects. We constantly help with
the education of our citizens to learn more about our patriots, our government,
our Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. We publish a chapter newsletter and
pamphlet. We have a chapter website http://www.ncdar.org/brunswicktownchapter.htm
which is linked to our chapter
