Lineage and Patriotic Organizations

One of our favorite traditions at Washington Memorial Chapel is hosting lineage and patriotic societies from all over the country. Since our beginnings, we have welcomed the Daughters of the American Revolution, The Society of the Sons of the Revolution, The Sons of the American Revolution, the Colonial Dames of America, Colonial Wars, The Society of the Cincinnati, and the list goes on and on.

If your state society would like to join us for 1662 Evensong (the same rite of which George Washington and many of our founding fathers were familiar!) and a luncheon or tea here at the Chapel complete with a tour of the Chapel and bell tower, please email our Parish Business Manager.

We also welcome multiple state societies to plan a trip together. We have recently enjoyed visits from the New York and New Jersey State Societies of the DAR, for example.
