Albemarle Chapter Information


Albemarle Chapter has more than 100 members and associate members.  We are always seeking new members. Contact the  NSDAR Home Page for membership information.

Each meeting of the Albemarle Chapter includes Devotions, Patriotic Exercises, The President General's Message, and a National Defense Message.  Certain areas of business for the chapter are conducted by the officers.  There is then an enjoyable informational program, followed by lunch or dinner.

In addition to our meetings, the Chapter celebrates annually: Constitution Week, Yorktown Day, Mr. Thomas Jefferson's Birthday, Flag Day, and July 4th Naturalization Ceremonies at Monticello.

Each year the four chapters in this area, Albemarle, Jack Jouett, Point of Fork, and Shadwell Chapter, have a combined meeting for a National Defense program.

Annually, Albemarle Chapter recognizes many students and community members with awards.
