To perpetuate the memory and spirit of those who achieved American Independence by promoting unity and fellowship among their descendants; inspiring the community at large with a reverence for the principles of government founded by our forefathers; to encourage the celebration of all patriotic anniversaries and to foster true patriotism and love for our country. Our chapter is primarily comprised of members from Atlantic and Cape May Counties, New Jersey. Members of the Col. Richard Somers Chapter SAR gathered at the Steelman grave site in Atlantic County Veterans Cemetery, Estell Manor to commemorate Memorial Day, for the 26th straight year. Rev. Norman Thomas, Chapter President, lead the group with a memorial prayer and reminisced about the development of the cemetery.
Our chapter meets on the 2nd Thursday of Each Month, at 7:00PM, at the Point Diner, Somers Point, NJ. All are welcome. Take time to remember those who have given so much that we may enjoy our lives as Citizens of the United States of America, and remember those who are far from home serving our country. 
Rev. Norman H. Thomas, President - Treasurer Harry P. Folger, Vice President William F. Schmitz, Vice President - Programs Earl Cain, Secretary - Historian Somers Corson, Chaplain
