Saguaro Chapter History
Saguaro Chapter organized by the National Board of Management on October 10, 1974 and was confirmed on December 6, 1974 with sixteen members. Mrs. Frances Morrison Gwinner was the Chapter Organizing Regent. At the close of Saguaro’s first year, chapter membership included six Junior Members, six Associate Members and totaled twenty-eight.

Dorothy Brinton Brand, Saguaro's second Regent, suggested the Chapter be named after the Saguaro Cactus, a native plant of the Sonoran Desert. Its blossom is the Arizona State Flower and the plant itself is protected by law. A stately plant, it grows very slowly; many of the oldest plants located in Arizona are estimated to be 150 - 200 years old.
