On June 9, the Genesee Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) celebrated its 125th anniversary. The Genesee Chapter was organized in 1897 with Harriet P. Thompson as regent and continues to promote patriotism, education and historic preservation in Central Michigan. To become a DAR member, a woman has to prove lineage and bloodline descent to a male or female ancestor who served or provided support in the American Revolution.

Are you starting to feel the energy in the air? In our family, the month of May has always been busy.

And now, we’re throwing the sports schedules of two grandsons into the mix.
