Special Note on Referrals
The Arizona Society, SAR, and the Arizona State Society, DAR, have award programs to help each other recruit new
members.
The SAR referrals to the DAR use the DAR Finder Form. The forms and process
are defined on the
NSSAR DAR Liaison Committee website.
The ASDAR women have started a
program to reward SAR members who bring them new DAR members.
The SAR Finder Form is available in .pdf format.
In each case, the forms must be
completed and submitted with an application.
Arizona State Flag
The 13 rays
of red and gold on the top half of the flag represent both the 13 original colonies of the Union, and the rays
of the Western setting sun. Red and gold were also the colors carried by Coronado's Spanish expedition in
search of the Seven Cities of Cibola in 1540. The bottom half of the flag has the same Liberty blue as
the United States flag. Since Arizona was the largest producer of copper in the nation, a copper
star was placed in the flag's center.
