There is only one presiding officer – address that person only.

  • When addressing a Presiding Officer in a Chapter meeting say “Madam Regent.”

  • If the Regent calls upon you for a report, say: “Thank you, Madam Regent” and continue with your report.

  • If you are called upon at a State conference, say: “Thank you, Madam State Regent.”

  • A presiding officer does not applaud and never relinquishes the chair unless a motion or action refers to her only.

  • State conferences begin with a procession of Pages carrying flags, District Directors, State officers, Honorary State Regents Visiting State Regents, Visiting National officers, and the State Regent. If the President General is in attendance, she processes just before the State Regent. The State Regent is the highest ranking officer -even if the President General is present.

  • If gloves are worn, and this is usually only in the evening, the glove is removed from the right hand when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the Unites States of America and when singing the National Anthem. It is customary for gloves to be worn during a receiving line, but it is not mandatory and the hostess sets the example.

  • During the State Conference, the center aisle is used only for the procession and recession. Those giving reports use the side aisles only. And, if possible, never walk in front of the dais.

  • Personal pages are assigned to the State Regent, State Officers, Honorary State Regents, and the General Chairman of the Conferences. There are also pages around the room to help members with any need they may have. To be eligible to be a page – you must be between the ages of 18-36 years and a member of the DAR.


    So What’s with the Pins and Ribbons?

    One of the first things you may notice upon entering a DAR meeting are the ribbons and pins worn by DAR members. It may remind you of your days back in the Girls Scouts of America and it is the same premise. Some pins you can outright purchase since you are a now a member of the NSDAR: other pins must be earned. Pins are earned based on committees and positions that you have served.
