Hiddenite, NC – The Hiddenite Center welcomes the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) to the Lucas Mansion. DAR is a lineage-based membership service organization for women, directly descended from a person involved in the United States’ efforts toward independence. It is a non-profit organization promoting both education and patriotism. The DAR is in the process of forming an Alexander County Chapter of the 
organization. On Saturday, February 4, 2023 from 11:00 am until 2:00 pm, DAR members will be at the Lucas Mansion’s second-floor reception area. The public is welcome and invited to meet with organizers and the planning committee during this time.
