Madame Regent Grund also told stories of visiting other state conventions around the country. A funny story was when she went to the New York state convention and wore her antebellum style dress to a themed party. She joked about bringing Dixie to the north.
Other topics mentioned were plans for DAR to celebrate Armed Forces Day at the USS Alabama battleship, a program called Mary's Mission that helps homeless veterans have proper burial arrangements and how the DAR lays wreaths on military graves.
At the end of the meeting Madame State Regent Grund installed the new officers of Francis Marion Chapter NSDAR.
