American Colonial Heritage was honored by Colonial Dames XVII Century, John Lee of Nansemond Chapter in the community, a Thomasville school, and with the members.  

At Roddenberry Public Library in Cairo is a display about the United States Constitution for the public to view.

The book, “The Words That Made Us,” by Akhil Reed Amar, was given in honor of Jinanne Parrish, past president of the chapter. The book is a history of the creation of the Constitution. Members at our September chapter meeting received copies of the United States Constitution and United States flags.
