Drum Hill Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR)

The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR), founded in 1890 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., is a non-profit, non-political volunteer women's service organization, dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history and historical properties, and securing America's future through better education for our children. The Drum Hill Chapter, NSDAR, is involved in raising funds for local scholarships.

The Drum Hill Chapter, NSDAR, of Wilton, Connecticut, was organized in 1957 and is named after an area of land (presently in Wilton) granted in 1689 by Norwalk to Jonathan and Joseph Blackwell and William Lees. It was used for keeping their drums in good repair in order to summon residents to assemble.
