Welcome to the

Color Country Chapter

St. George, Utah

National Society Daughters of the American Revolution

 


About Our Chapter

 

The Color Country Chapter was officially organized on April 18, 1997.  Diane Tarbox was the Organizing Regent.  The name "Color Country" pays tribute to the striking red rocks, green mountains, white desert sands, and the beautiful blue skies that abound in Southwestern Utah.  The areas surrounding St. George have, for a long time, been identified with this name, so it seemed only fitting that the first DAR chapter in St. George be called "Color Country."

 


Meetings

 

Unless otherwise noted, our meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month from September through May at 1:30 pm.  If you have an interest in attending one of our regularly scheduled meetings, please email our regent, Alta Thorpe for meeting locations.
