The fellowship & spirit of the Central Michigan Chapter is second to none. CMC has been involved in significant events, such as the dedication of the Holland Park Veterans Home Front Memorial in Big Rapids. There are opportunities to participate in any of the many programs. Meetings include members giving captivating presentations of their Patriot ancestor and often guest speaker orations.
The CMC received its Charter in April 2016 at the MISSAR Annual Meeting in East Lansing (see photo below taken November 12, 2016). CMC general membership meetings are typically held at the Cheers Neighborhood Grill in Mount Pleasant at 11:00 a.m. on the 2nd Saturday of these months: March, May, August, October, and November. The theme of our November meeting is “Ladies Appreciation,” and it is the last meeting of the year. The Board of Governors meetings are typically held on the same day as the general membership meeting, except the time/location is 9 a.m. at the Remus Tavern in Remus.
