Welcome!

The Richard Bard Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR), was organized in Mesquite, Texas, on April 13, 1985, by organizing regent Maxine Lytle Dodd. The chapter had 35 organizing members including 27 Junior members and 29 new NSDAR members. 

We are now 100+ members strong reaching out to local schools with scholarships, ROTC, and DAR Good Citizens. The Richard Bard Chapter, NSDAR, participates in many projects and programs that celebrate the three areas that the NSDAR stands for:

• historic preservation
• education
• patriotism

The Richard Bard Chapter, NSDAR, meets August through May on the second Saturday of each month, except September. We encourage our members to attend both the Texas Daughters of the American Revolution (TXDAR) State Conference and the TXDAR Fall Forum. For more information, please contact our Chapter Regent. Our Registrar can answer your questions about membership.
