CCSAR inducts seven new members from Highland County

By

On March 26, a crowd of over 40 Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) members and others interested in membership attended a special meeting held at the Fraternal Order of Eagles (FOE) Hall in Hillsboro. ??Twelve of the attendees were members of the Cincinnati Chapter of SAR.

The Ohio Society Sons of the American Revolution has been actively recruiting new members in the Adams, Brown, and Highland Counties of Southwest Ohio in hopes of organizing a new chapter.

On March 26, the formation of this chapter took a huge leap forward when an organizational meeting was held in Hillsboro, Ohio in Highland County. The presence of 24 CCSAR members expressed the level of commitment to the creation of a new chapter East of Cincinnati to accommodate the many members expected to be recruited from that highland area of Ohio.

Indeed, during the recruitment process, new members have been placed into the Cincinnati Chapter in anticipation of this new chapter. In addition, local DAR members like Charleene Tarr, former Regent of the Will-A-Way DAR Chapter, have been encouraging a new chapter in this location.

Cincinnati members of SAR anxiously await the opportunity to welcome an additional organization to serve the objectives of honoring those Patriots who gave us the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, an independent Supreme Court and this nation of Free Men in which we live.
