Interests
In her free time, Dymond loves searching genealogy databases, cemeteries, town clerk’s offices, and archives to unearth the history of her ancestors. Through her research she discovered she has deep roots in Rhode Island and found two Patriots that served in the Revolutionary War. Using her ancestor Michael Anthony’s service, she was accepted into the Daughters of the American Revolution in January 2018 where she is a member of the Rhode Island Independence Chapter and serves as Rhode Island State Regent.
Her State Regent administration theme is 'Illuminating Our Revolutionary Past, Blazing A Path For Our Future'. Funds raised through the State Regent's Project will go towards supporting scholarships for college students studying in a history related field, grants for teachers, book donations to students and U.S. service members stationed overseas, classroom civics kits, and cemetery cleaning supplies to clean the gravestones of Revolutionary War Patriots.
