Hallie Orme Thomas Society

Our society is the oldest and first C.A.R. society in the state, organizing in 1925, disbanded briefly in 1955, and reorganized in 1959. Our society is named for a pioneer woman named Hallie Orme Thomas (pronounced Hal'-ee Orm Tom-us), credited as the first Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) woman in Arizona.

Meetings are held monthly, August through April. Business meetings are typically scheduled on a Sunday, 2-4pm, at the home of a family member. Some meetings will be activities in the community. Contact us at [email protected] for details.

Annual traditional activities include:

Pool Party Planning meeting in August
March in the City of Surprise Veterans Day Parade
Lay wreaths for Wreaths Across America at the National Memorial Cemetery in Phoenix
Participate in the national C.A.R.'s Day of Service
April FUN meeting where members simply enjoy time together at a location of their choice
