Thank you to everyone in the community who responded to the pleas for cleanup assistance at Veterans River Park in Kirkwood! We look forward to being a part of this once-in-a-generation event at the Kirkwood NY America 250 Celebration. Stop by the DAR tent for genealogy assistance to answer the question, "Were your ancestors Revolutionary?"

On July 2, 1776, the Second Continental Congress voted to approve the resolution declaring that the colonies "are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States." Although July 4 became the date Americans celebrate, it was this vote on July 2 that formally severed political ties with Great Britain and created the United States of America.

Three chapter officers served as delegates to NSDAR's 135th Continental Congress last week in Washington DC. At Illuminating Our Service Night, the chapter was honored to be awarded 4th Place in the nation for our 2025 DAR Day of Service project in support of the Kwek Society. We're incredibly proud of this recognition!

“Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that men have died to win them.” — Franklin D. Roosevelt

Today we pause to honor and remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation. May we never forget the sacrifices made to preserve the freedoms we enjoy, and may their courage and devotion continue to inspire generations to come.

Each year, a DAR chapter may recognize a cadet from a military-affiliated cadet program who demonstrates academic excellence, dependability, good character, adherence to military discipline, leadership, and a strong patriotic understanding of the importance of cadet training. Only one cadet per unit is selected, making this a truly distinguished honor. Chapter regent Anissa Harper and National Defense Committee chair Dianne Cappiello presented the DAR Outstanding Cadet medal to Cadet Chief Master Sergeant Tobias Benedict of the NY-292 Southern Tier Cadet Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol at Greater Binghamton Airport last Thursday evening.

Toby has been a member of the local Civil Air Patrol program since 2023, and he was also recognized during the unit's promotions and awards ceremony for completing the Neil Armstrong Achievement. Toby, who is 14, is homeschooled and in the ninth grade. In addition to Civil Air Patrol, he is a member of Future Business Leaders of America and attends youth group. His interests include creating with Legos, playing video games, reading, and hanging out with his two Basset hounds, Maple and Murphy. Our sincere congratulations to Toby--a cadet who exemplifies the highest ideals of the Civil Air Patrol!

On this final day of Women’s History Month, we remember Abigail Adams and her candid voice during the founding era. Writing on March 31, 1776, she shared the concerns of an 18th-century woman navigating a time of revolution, advocating for married women’s property rights and greater access to education. Abigail believed women should not be bound by laws made without their interests in mind, nor confined to the role of companions, but recognized for their intellect and influence within the family. Although her appeal to “remember the ladies” was largely dismissed at the time, it reflects a broader pattern in her letters that underscores how thoughtfully women engaged with the ideas of liberty and justice at the nation’s founding.

"I long to hear that you have declared an independancy—and by the way in the new Code of Laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If perticuliar care and attention is not paid to the Laidies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation."
