Activities

Columbine is a very active chapter. These are a few of our projects:

  • We support Wreaths Across America by purchasing and laying wreaths on veterans’ graves at Fort Logan National Cemetery
  • We participate in commemorative events such as the Highlands Ranch 4th of July Parade, Flag Day at Genesee Park, Constitution Day, and Veterans Day
  • We volunteer at historic Schweiger Ranch, Lone Tree’s unique 1874 homestead
  • We ensure that local cities recognize Constitution Day September 17 by providing proclamations to be read at city council meetings
  • We present a JROTC Medal to an outstanding JROTC student annually
  • We participate in Naturalization Ceremonies where we congratulate new citizens.
  • We placed a marker for victims of the 1918-1919 Spanish Flu Pandemic at Fairmount Cemetery and also obtained a grant for saving the grave of Emily Griffith, historic Denver educator
  • We participate in historic re-enactments of Colonial times
  • We participated in DAR Day of Service by baking cookies for police in Lone Tree, Greenwood Village, and Highlands Ranch
  • We collected books for the Boys and Girls Clubs and Koelbel Library
  • We presented the Women in American History Award to Tweet Kimball at Cherokee Ranch

Columbine Chapter is our home chapter, but we embrace friends and Daughters in other Colorado chapters and maintain the camaraderie and friendships many of us have developed among NSDAR chapters nationwide. Above all else, we are Daughters of the American Revolution, honoring our rich patriotic heritage and the freedoms for which our patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
