Americanism

The organization was incorporated in part to bear true allegiance to the Flag and Constitution of the United States of America. A formal program was adopted in 1965, at which time it became mandatory to promote a plan of action in each Club. In addition to the monthly programs, members are urged to become involved in originating patriotic endeavors and participating with others in these projects.
