 Chapter History:The Ozark Spring Chapter NSDAR was organized October 14, 1977, with 13 organizing members:Mrs. Vivian Brooks, Mrs. Bonnie Coffman, Mrs. Edith Dold, Mrs. Virginia Hard, Mrs. Rubye Kiesler, Mrs. Doris Landis, Mrs. Jeanette Pease, Miss Cheryl Reavis, Mrs. Linda Shortridge, Mrs. Mary Ellen Wheeler, and Mrs. Christine White. The chapter took its name from an underground spring located one block east of Court Square in West Plains. The spring is a historically significant landmark in Howell county and was responsible for the county seat being located at West Plains. And like its namesake, it is hoped that Ozark Spring Chapter will make a significant contribution in our community through our commitment to the historical, educational, and patriotic objectives of our National Society. Chapter Activities:Whether we are celebrating patriotic events such as Constitution Week, participating in efforts to recognize veterans, helping preserve the history of our community or making a contribution that will help children receive an excellent education, Ozark Spring Chapter activities reflect our member's commitment to support our Society's objectives at a national, state and local level.Ozark Spring Chapter meetings are held the first Saturday of each month in West Plains, Missouri. We have a variety of interesting and educational programs given with topics such as historical facts, conservation, and national defense. For more information on chapter activities or if you would like to attend one of our meetings, please contact us* for meeting time and place, and upcoming programs. *Guests are welcome. You will find chapter members eager to answer questions about DAR membership and willing to help with your application process. Chapter Officers (2008-2010):Evelyn Vetter, Regent Patriot Ancestors:
