La Jolla Chapter, NSDAR

The La Jolla Chapter, NSDAR, meets in the downtown La Jolla area on the first Saturday of the month from January through June and October through November.  We have a growing and active membership of over one hundred women who all strive to serve God, Home, and Country. 

Each year at our Members and Prospective Members Tea we come together to celebrate our members and introduce our much-appreciated group of prospective members. One interesting chapter fact about the beautiful tea service that is used at this event is one of our chapter’s most prized possessions.  This tea service was purchased by our chapter back in 1968 and has made its appearance at many celebrations since. Back in the day, when the chapter met at The La Jolla Women’s Club, this tea service was brought out for tea after every meeting. The ladies in attendance were dressed in their finest attire, including hats and gloves, and a “Tea Committee” would serve tea and other delights for their enjoyment. Our long time members recall these days gone by.
 
We continue to enjoy our special celebrations and many members carry on the tradition of wearing hats and gloves. The next time you attend one of these special parties, be sure and take notice of this lovely, prized possession of the La Jolla Chapter, NSDAR. New protective bags for the “Tea Service” were donated by a member who also had it repaired and restored to its original beauty. 

If you are interested in attending one of our meetings either as a prospective member or as someone who is just starting to look into their family history, please contact our chapter regent for location information.
