Communications Committee

Purpose: To have an informed membership in all aspects of C.A.R. work at the local, state, and national levels and to effectively communicate the work of C.A.R. and promote our activities and accomplishments to the general public to generate excitement, membership growth, and engagement with C.A.R. and our work. P

Program: Develop a communications plan including newsletters, media, and community outreach. 

Ideas for possible activities:

 1. Publicize your society’s activities and community involvement to promote membership through various media sources. 

2. Write articles for your local newspaper and DAR/SAR/S.R. chapters about C.A.R. and Liberty’s Legacy. 

3. Show your community how you are celebrating America 250 and Liberty’s Legacy. 

4. Create and publish a society newsletter with articles, activities, and games that represent Liberty’s Legacy and enter the newsletter contest. 

5. Create a community outreach campaign to educate and promote C.A.R. in your local community. These are just SOME ideas for possible activities for this contest. We encourage and would like to see you create something new and exciting with your society for your submission.
