The Doc Susie Chapter

Organized on January 12, 2008, the Doctor Susan Anderson Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR),
is located in Arvada, Colorado.
We are a non-profit, non-political volunteer women's community service organization dedicated to promoting the National Society's objectives of patriotism, education, historic preservation through service to our community.
Our Doc Susie members are an active group of women of all ages – from college students, career women, to homemakers and retirees.
The Doctor Susan Anderson Chapter, NSDAR meets September through May on a Tuesday evening, except for two Saturday luncheon meetings in January and May; our community service projects occur on various dates throughout the year.
DAR members all share a common bond of having an ancestor who helped contribute to securing the independence of the United States of America.
Any woman 18 years or older, regardless of race, religion or ethnic background, who can prove lineal descent from a patriot of the American Revolution is eligible to join.

Education

Our chapter's community service supports local schools through various projects, encourages student participation in DAR essays, promotes literacy in the community, provides Constitution Week information, and provides scholarship information to local students.

Patriotism

Our chapter commemorates patriotic dates throughout the year, supports Veterans and active-duty military, provides ways to thank our local emergency responders, and recognizes members of the community (youth and adults) for their volunteer service and accomplishments.

Historic Preservation

Our chapter actively preserves local history through our Leyden Memorial marker, shares about American Revolution history and its patriots, actively engages in local conservation projects, and volunteers for various digitization projects.
