Members of three SAR chapters (Simon Kenton, Col. James Harrod, and Louisville-Thruston) joined the Lafayette Chapter to serve as the Color Guard at McConnell Springs for Lexington's 250th Anniversary celebration.   Continuing the celebration, the Lafayette Chapter dedicated a bench in honor of the occasion.  Other SAR members were involved in the reenactments and demonstrations performed throughout the Founder's Day event.
