The Signers Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution is proud to call Southern Nevada home. We offer a unique opportunity to connect with American History and camaraderie.
We normally hold meetings on the first Saturday of every other month. We encourage members from other states to take a few minutes out of their vacation plans to join us! Spouses and other family members are also welcome to attend. In the other months, we take a more casual approach. Join us for a Compatriots’ Muster at a local tavern. It’s a chance to catch up with old friends, welcome new faces, and share stories about our Revolutionary War ancestors.
We encourage anyone interested in the SAR to reach out. Use the contact form at the bottom of this page to get in touch.
