Chapter Meetings
Scope and Contents
Among the missions of the Sons of the American Revolution were to keep alive the history and memory of Revolutionary War participants, to support American ideals, to educate the young with such things as annual essay and poster contests, to mark and restore the graves of Revolutionary soldiers, to observe such events as Veterans Day, Flay Day, Constitution Week, the anniversaries of Revolutionary battles (such as Kettle Creek) and local naturalization ceremonies to welcome new citizens. The chapter also had monthly meetings with speakers and presentations, and an annual Christmas banquet.
