Thirty–nine of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the United States Constitution on September 17, 1787. Each year the Daughters of the American Revolution hold programs the week of September 17 to educate the public about the constitution. In Columbia, the DAR always request that September 17 be proclaimed Constitution Day by the mayor and the city council.
