About Arizona State Society, DAR

Greetings from our State Regent

One of the objectives of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR) is to protect important historical locations and erect monuments to preserve American history for future generations. For over a century, members have placed historical markers across the state to commemorate people and events important to our state’s history.

250 Years of Independence!

The Daughters of the American Revolution honor American Revolutionary War Patriots by engaging students through contests and educational programming while being involved with celebrations in communities across the country and in Arizona. The America 250 Commission’s goal is to catalyze a more perfect union by designing and leading the most comprehensive and inclusive celebration in our country’s history. We strive to honor our first 250 years and inspire Americans to imagine our next 250!

How would you have chosen to experience the American Revolution?  How were the lives of ordinary people affected by the events of the American Revolutionary War? As tensions mounted across the thirteen colonies, the entire revolutionary generation was faced with a difficult choice: to pledge loyalty to the Patriot cause and the prospect of a new nation or remain loyal to the King as subjects of the British Empire.  How would you choose?
