The Frederick Van Patten Chapter took a day to recognize two of their members during a Sunday tea this month. Dr. Cathleen Shultz and Honorable Annabelle Tuck were awarded the Women in American History for all the work they have done in their respective fields. Listening to their dedication and achievements they have done left everyone with a sense of awe and gratitude. These two women were humble about their achievements but are considered by many to be trailblazers, creating pathways and opening doors for others to follow. The Frederick Van Patten Chapter is honored to be able to present these awards to these outstanding ladies, who are also members of said chapter!

The Frederick Van Patten chapter was also excited to their first first hybrid meeting of the year. Regent Fran Haverstick presented Dr. Elizabeth Wilson with a NSDAR community service award for all of her work and dedication to domestic violence. Regent Haverstick later gave in enlightening program on Madonnas of the Trail, tributes made the pioneer women and mothers as they traveled west. Regent Haverstick traveled to a couple of these in person and was able to give the other members tips for if they ever travel to the Madonnas of the Trail.

Lastly, Regent Haverstick presented scholarships from the Frederick Van Patten Chapter to two graduating seniors. The Chapter is thrilled to be able to help these young ladies pursue a degree and are thankful to the members who donated to the Scholarship fund to make these scholarships possible.
