Color Guard Supports DC Society Officer Installation & Awards Banquet

25 APR 2017       DC SAR DINNER AT THE CITY TAVERN CLUB, GEORGETOWN, DC

    Four members of the Virginia SAR Color Guard participated in the District of Columbia Society 2017 Awards & Installation of Officers Dinner.  Our Color Guard combined with the I.D.E.A. Public Charter High School JROTC Color Guard to present the colors.  The Color Guard was invited to stay for the dinner and to listen to the guest speaker, Ambassador Paula J. Dobriansky, former Under Secretary of State for Democracy and Global Affairs (2001-2009).  The Virginia SAR Color Guard has supported the DC Society for this and other events for several years.  In appreciation for this support our Color Guard members received the DC Society Honor in Service Medal.  Virginia SAR Color Guardsmen participating in this event were: Vern Eubanks, Larry McKnley, Darrin Schmidt, and Bill Schwetke.  We look forward to supporting the DC Society in future events.
