As 2025 comes to a close, it makes me so proud to look back and recall all the phenomenal things we have done in Mesquite to promote Education, Patriotism and Historic Preservation over the last twelve months.  I am looking forward to 2026 knowing that it will be just as great thanks to all the amazing and dedicated members of the Virgin Valley DAR Chapter.
We also will be looking forward to the Semiquincentennial.  January 1st marks the official start of the America 250 countdown, a time to reflect upon and celebrate the Patriots and events that lead to the founding of this great nation.  Communities large and small around the country are planning celebrations over the next six months to commemorate this extraordinary anniversary.
In the meantime, I wish all of you the Happiest New Year.  Keep well and be safe.
