In observance of Constitution Week in September, the Lily of the Cahaba Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) received a proclamation from Hoover Mayor Gary Ivey, designating Sept. 17-23 as Constitution Week in the City of Hoover. The Chapter organized a bell ringing ceremony at Hoover Fire Station No. 4 in conjunction with the national program, Bells Across America, to mark the event.
During the week, Hoover, Vestavia and North Shelby Public Libraries displayed information about the U.S. Constitution to create awareness of one of the nation’s most important documents.
In appreciation of the nation’s military forces in protecting and defending the U.S. Constitution, the Lily of the Cahaba Chapter also hosted an Ice Cream Social at a Three Hots and A Cot, a residence for veterans in Hoover.
