About the C.A.R.
The Washington State Society of the Children of the American Revolution is a subdivision of The National Society of the Children of the American Revolution, founded in 1895, the oldest patriotic organization for youth in the United States of America.
Membership is open to descendants of American Revolution patriots. The age range is birth through twenty-one. Meetings and activities are planned for all ages with special consideration given to younger members. C.A.R. offers fun, family educational experiences and opportunities to learn about history while creating history.
Members gain valuable leadership experience by conducting meetings, following parliamentary procedures and standard protocol, serving as delegates, and speaking before groups at local, state, and national conferences. The responsibility and privilege of selecting officers helps members gain an understanding of the democratic process.
The Washington State Society was formally organized in 1947, although local C.A.R. societies had existed in Washington State since 1896. The purpose of the State Society is to promote the work of C.A.R. in the local societies, to provide leadership training, and to facilitate cooperation among the local societies.
