Sarah Maples DAR press release

The Sarah Maples Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution met at the Methodist Church in Tool on Sept. 17, to celebrate the Constitution.

Scott McKee, another lover of the United States Constitution, agreed to be the speaker at the luncheon. Scott spoke of when he was in law school that they did not teach the Constitution. It is the most important document that our government has and therefore important to our laws so why is it not taught in law school? He still is waiting for that answer. As District Attorney for Henderson County he makes sure his staff knows the Constitution because he feels very strongly how important it is.

The DAR opens each meeting with another part, the Preamble to the Constitution. “We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America”.

We are hoping Scott will come visit us again. We all enjoyed his thoughts on the Constitution as we feel the same way about the Constitution and our Country.
