WELCOME TO OUR CHAPTER'S HOME PAGE
OUR 2009-2011 CHAPTER REGENT
Cori Snobble
- EL PORTAL means the "Gateway" or "Portal." Our chapter was organized by Mrs. Ralph Martin on April 18, 1931. We have 47 members and associate members from across the United
States. Our resident members represent the Clovis area including the New Mexico cities of Clovis, Portales, and Floyd and Muleshoe, Texas. Our purpose is to perpetuate the memory and
spirit of the men and women who achieved American Independence, promote development of an enlightened public opinion, and foster patriotic citizenship. We meet in the homes of members
or in public meeting places on the second Saturday of each month from September through June. If you have any questions about the DAR requirements to join or about our chapter,
