A bit about our chapter

Nathan Hale Memorial Chapter DAR is just one of 3000 chapters in the

United States. It was orgainzed in East Haddam, Connecticut on June 6,

1900. Today, our membership comprises 81 women from all over the

country with the majority residing within Middlesex and New London

counties. We vary our monthly meeting times and locations among the

lower Connecticut River towns. Some meetings involve trips to sites

across our beautiful State. We honor and remember Connecticut's State

Hero, Captain Nathan Hale at our annual Saturday meeting held on or

near his birthday, June 6th.
