Sagamore Chapter was organized in Leawood, Kansas on April 18, 1965, by Mrs.
Vera Greenlease. Mrs. Vivian Brown was Organizing Regent with eighteen
charter members. It was the only chapter in the state organized during the
NSDAR Diamond Jubilee. The name Sagamore is from the Indian
word, sachem, meaning chief, or ruler of a tribe.
Our Chapter has grown during the years since its formation. We have enjoyed
working together, paving our trails with DAR ideals, and maintaining and
creating new friendships through community activities.
