About Our Chapter
The Mecklenburg Chapter was chartered on April 27, 1928 as a chapter of the State of North Carolina Society of the sons of the American Revolution.
We meet four (4) times each year at the Hilton Executive Park on Tyvola Road off I-77 in Charlotte. We always welcome men who are interested in joining the SAR for dinner and socializing.
