On April 25, 2009 the Chinkchewunska Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution held a luncheon to honor children from local schools. Each year the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution holds an essay contest about a historical event.  The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution also honor graduating high school senior “Good Citizens”.  Pictured are this year’s Sussex County winners.
