OUR 2005-2007 CHAPTER REGENT
Linda Baldock
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,
