Dear Joe,
I am a Daughter of the American Revolution and a retired Army LTC who served during the period recognized by this Commemoration. My DAR Chapter, Martin Severance, in Pasadena, is planning an event for November 2. I am delighted to hear from you because I could not get into the portal with my organization's password when I tried to register this event last week. Here are my responses to your questions. I hope to Register based on these responses and I hope to obtain 15 commemorative pins based on this registration.
A. Location: Women's City Club of Pasadena,
Title " Honoring our Vietnam Veterans",
Time : 9:00 am breakfast, and social time, 9:30 introduction of our guest speaker Doc Martin, a Vietnam Veteran, a college professor, and advocate for Veterans.
Purpose: To recognize the Vietnam Veterans in our Community, to increase our understanding of their experience and its impact on them and their families, to support
them as they have us and to develop a network in the community for DAR to further assist and support our Vietnam Veterans.
B. Agenda: 9:00 am breakfast and social time,
9:30 introduction of guest speaker
9:50 -10:15 introduction of attending veterans, and a thank you to each person with a commemorative pin and a certificate from a grateful nation as represented

C. Anticipated Attendance:
We anticipate 60 people to attend. Fifty will be DAR members and we will honor 10 to 12 Veterans, who are active in local VFWs, and who will help our
DAR members to better understand the issues of this population in our community so that we can provide better support and encouragement.
Thank you for reaching out to us. I hope you see the value in this type of event. We hope to use this event to grow other events for the years to come. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank You,
Phyllis
