“Mr. President, I appreciate having this opportunity to recognize the 102nd annual conference of the Wyoming State Society, Daughters of the American Revolution. This year's conference is being held in Casper and once again promises to be an interesting, informative, and inspirational event.

There is only one qualification for membership in the DAR.…”
