We had a great meeting on Saturday as we continued our "We can do it!" theme. We were "Celebrating Daughters, Celebrating Us" as we reviewed our Constitution Week activities, presented our 2025 state and national awards, collected donations for the canteen at the local NC State Veterans Home, and began our 100th birthday celebration with a wreath-laying at the grave of our Organizing Chapter Regent, Mattie Kennedy Parrott. Organized October 20, 1926.

April 19, 1775 the American Revolution began when "the shot heard 'round the world" was fired.
July 4, 1776 is our birth date, the date the Declaration of Independence was announced to the colonies.
October 19, 1781 British Commander Lord Cornwallis surrendered to American General George Washington, ending the fighting in the colonies.
September 3, 1783 The Treaty of Paris was signed, officially ending the American Revolution and establishing the United States of America.

This plaque is located in Paris, France. It was mounted in the same block as our hotel. Proud to see it in person, June 2026, just before our celebration of America 250.

We thought it would be fun if we started a Throwback Thursday post about Governor Richard Caswell, his family, and the Richard Caswell Memorial Site. So, each Thursday we will feature a new post with some facts. Today's post is about Governor Richard Caswell himself. Why is he important to the state of North Carolina? Find out below!
