Connecticut DAR chapters participate in many activities promoting patriotism throughout the year.

Flags Placed to Commemorate Veteran Service and Sacrifice

Members of the Penelope Terry Abbey Chapter, NSDAR, place U.S. flags on the town green to honor the Enfield, Connecticut, service members who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Wreaths on Veterans Graves at Holiday Time

In December, many Connecticut DAR chapters participate in the Wreaths Across America program or a similar program in their community. They gather with fellow citizens to place holiday wreaths on veterans’ graves in local cemeteries. Many members also help with wreath clean-up in the frigid temperatures of January.
