The first official meeting of the Columbia SAR Chapter was held on February 17, 1971 at Kozel�s Restaurant in Ghent, Columbia County, NY.

No records can be found about that organizational meeting but these seven members wrote and voted on the new Chapter�s By-laws. Mr. Gage and Mr. Nichols are still active members. We continue to look for any information or pictures from the first years of the Chapter.

On November 9, 2005, our Chapter was renamed to Columbia-Mid Hudson Valley SAR Chapter as to include all four counties: Columbia, Dutchess, Greene and Ulster. Our Chapter has grown in 2001 from 32 members to 50 members in February 2009; seven of the members live out of area/state
In addition, there are 7 to 10 future Chapter members working on applications into the Sons of the American Revolution.
