Compatriots and Potential Members –

It is with deep gratitude and honor that I accept the role as your 2026 President of the Mecklenburg Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution. I’m mindful of the legacy we represent — the courage, conviction, and sacrifice of the patriots who laid the foundations of our nation here in this community and beyond.

Our chapter has a proud history of preserving that legacy — through education, commemorations, and service. But as we look ahead to 2026, our mission takes on even greater meaning. The 250th anniversary of American independence — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to renew public understanding of the principles that united our ancestors and gave birth to liberty.

With purpose and passion — let’s tell the stories of our patriots, support our youth programs, and ensure that the ideals of 1776 continue to inspire new generations.

I am humbled and so grateful for your trust, for the long line of leadership that has brought us this far, and for the companionship of each compatriot who shares this sacred duty. This chapter is so fortunate to have a Board of Managers that dedicates countless hours to this organizations mission. Gentlemen, I salute you. You are Great Americans.

I’ll echo our State President’s call to the membership. Join in. Get involved. Between events, youth outreach, and the National Congress right here in North Carolina next year, there will be plenty of opportunities.

So together, let us honor our ancestors — not just in memory, but through action. And make new friends and have some fun along the way.

Thank you, and may God bless the Sons of the American Revolution and our great nation.

Chad Anthony Lloyd, President,
Mecklenburg Chapter, NCSSAR
