Educational Projects
Harris Ferry Chapter is involved with a multitude of projects to encourage education and the teaching of youth. The future of the Sons of the American Revolution is in the next generation.
School Contests
The SAR has various contests for school students of all ages to enter and win prizes. These contests offer opportunities for the Chapter to visit schools and present programs to educate the youth on the American Revolution, our Founding Fathers, and other significant events, battles, and moments of the time.
