SAR Calendar Event Submission Form

    SCSSAR • Calendar Event Submission Form

    Major chapter, state, and national SAR-sponsored events only. Chapter meetings and non-SAR-sponsored events will not be included.





















    [acceptance* acceptance-terms] I understand this submission will be reviewed before being posted to the SCSSAR calendar. [/acceptance]

    Note: The Official Society Events Calendar focuses on major chapter, state, and national SAR-sponored events. These include Revolutionary War or Patriot-related observances, memorials, reenactments, commemorations, celebrations, or social gatherings whose success depends on attracting participants from outside approximately a 25-mile radius of the event location. To prevent over-populating the calendar, chapter meetings will not be included – nor will events not sponsored by SAR or SCSSAR.
