She was a devoted member of the Davy Jackson Chapter where she held several leadership positions including chapter regent from 2010-2016. Dine was the Wyoming State Regent from 2018-2020.  DAR provided Dine with the opportunity to engage her love of genealogy as she traced her lineage to 14 patriots who fought in the Revolutionary War.
