The Weatherford Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution, with financial support from the Parker County Heritage Society, dedicated a plaque in honor of America 250 Saturday, June 13. America 250 commemorates the nation's 250th anniversary in 2026.

The plaque dedication was held at Veterans Memorial at Soldier Spring Park and led by Weatherford Chapter DAR Regent Beth Holst.
