On November 9, 1972, at a dinner at the historic Wortley Hotel in Lincoln, Sierra Blanca Chapter of the NSDAR was organized as the sixteenth chapter of the New Mexico Daughters of the American Revolution. The name Sierra Blanca was chosen because Sierra Blanca Peak dominates the landscape in the area, seeming to challenge all to reach for ever-higher goals. Our meetings are held on the third Thursday of the month, 11:30 p.m., September to May. 

WHAT WE DO

1. DAR has always been proud of the men and women who serve in America's military, and engages in a variety of service projects for active duty servicemen, women, and veterans.

2. DAR supports 6 schools in its mission to promote education, and we encourage school children to learn more about American History with essay awards and Good Citizen contests.

3. Members are encouraged to locate, transcribe, and submit original source records of a genealogical nature to the NSDAR collection. This fine collection is housed in Washington, DC, and easily accessed.

Prospective members are welcome and assistance is available in filling out membership applications.
