2024 Second Quarter Meeting
SAR members and invited guest are welcome to join us for the 2024 2nd Quarter Meeting held at the historic Pittsburgh Golf Club on Sunday June 2, 2024 at 11:30 am.
​
The Pittsburgh Golf Club was created by some of Pittsburgh’s leading citizens living in the East End for their own pleasure and for the pleasure of their families and friends. They wanted a “place like home” with manners, language and décor that made them feel “ at home.”
​
Jason Cherry, author of the new book Pittsburgh’s Lost Outpost: Captain Trent’s Fort, will give a presentation on his book.
​
Mr. Cherry is a native of Butler, Pennsylvania and graduate of the University of Massachusetts. He has reenacted the French and Indian War for over thirty years portraying the group of volunteers hired under William Trent Jr in 1754, a unit known as Captain William Trent's Company. He also has conducted over forty speaking engagements on William Trent's role in Pennsylvania and New Jersey during the eighteenth century throughout the Eastern United States.
National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution (NSSAR or SAR) was founded in 1889 and is headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky.
SAR is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history, and promoting education to our future generations. SAR members volunteer untold hours of service each year in their local communities. SAR is very active in supporting active-duty military personnel and assisting veterans as well. We proudly assist classrooms with living history interpreters, lesson planning materials and reenactment events for school-aged youth to attend.
