If you’re interested in joining, or just have questions about joining or the DAR in general, we can help.

Our chapter meets monthly from September through May, so please reach out to us and attend a meeting as our guest.  You can see how active we are with historical preservation and veteran’s service.  We met the second Saturday in January, March, May, September, and November.  We meet at the Hugh Dancy American Legion in Horn Lake, MS. 

In the DAR we are a very patriotic group of women, opening each meeting with a ritual that salutes the flag and recites the American’s Creed. We work to support schools and scholarships, to provide gifts for veterans and hospital patients, and to award medals to students outstanding in history, citizenship, and R.O.T.C.

We distribute a DAR Manual for Citizenship, we stress conservation of natural and human resources, and we collect and preserve genealogical records.

We celebrate Constitution Week each September, focusing on the provisions of the Constitution. American History Month is observed each February.

Membership is open to any woman at least 18 years old who can trace lineal descent from a Revolutionary War soldier or patriot.

If you still have questions or would like to see our chapter in action, please contact us and we’ll do all we can to help.  If you’re ready to join us, please click here to be taken to the National DAR website to complete the Prospective Member Information Form.  You’ll be contacted by a state representative to begin your journey to sisterhood.
