One day Keith noticed the school needed a new flag, because it was a small flag to recite the Pledge of Allegiance to each morning.

Keith thought he should help the kids at the school get a bigger flag.

Keith talked to his parents about his idea, and they decided to help the kids out. The kids were so excited to recive a bigger flag they stood straight up proud and recited the Pledge of Allegiance.  That is how one day a school got a new flag.

The 61st C.A.R Washington State Conference taught me how members pick state officers. All members attending the conference votes for each office. There were only 8 members at the conference, so choices were limited. Since we are a new society, people were really interested to find out what we do. At our meeting Senior President Connie Anderson put a display board to show all the activies we have done, so far this 2007-2008 year. The C.A.R. is very interesting, I would encourage you to come to the Washington State Conference and to get more involved, meet other members, make new friends all while having fun!

Thank you, President Rachel Anderson.

John Berg was elected as the Senior State President for the Washington State Society of the Children of the American Revolution. His plans include recruiting and training senior leaders, so that the youth of the C.A.R. have a good experience as members. He also would like to add about 75 new members state-wide to the C.A.R.

Members and guests of the Randolph Lawson Society of the Children of the Revolution recently held a party in honor of the 400th anniversary of the Jamestown settlement. The party was held at 11:30 a.m. on January 12, 2008 at the Cowlitz County Historical Museum in Kelso, Washington. The members and leaders were able to tour a museum, play games, eat cake, and just have a great time.
