Members of the Rhea-Craig Chapter of the DAR furnished lap robes for Military Veteran residents at the Ben Atchley Tennessee Veterans' State Home in Knoxville, TN. Rhea-Craig Regent Jane Yates and Corresponding Secretary Marcia Long presented the lap robes to a representative of the Veterans' home in February, 2014. This gift is one of many on-going programs to provide comfort items for individual residents at the home and to remind our Veterans that their heroic actions are never forgotten or taken for granted.
Over two hundred years ago, American Patriots fought and sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy today. Through participation in the Society’s programs and activities you can continue this legacy by actively supporting historic preservation and promoting educational and patriotic endeavors. 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 for membership.
