Chapter History

David Douglas Chapter was organized on June 21, 1981, in Redmond, Washington. Most members live with Eastside communities, including: Redmond, Kirkland, Sammamish, Bothell, and Woodinville. We also have members living in Seattle, Edmonds, Sequim, and outside Washington state.

Throughout our Chapter’s history we are proud to have sponsored two state winners for the Outstanding History Teacher award and four state winners for the DAR Good Citizens Award program.

Juniors (DAR members aged 18 to 35) are a vibrant part of our chapter. Two of our Junior members were Washington State Outstanding Juniors, and one was a finalist for National Outstanding Junior.

In 2011, our chapter founded the Mt. Rainier Society Children of the American Revolution (CAR).
