To be consistent with that acronym and relationship we use the name            Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route Association of Delaware Our 2003 charter of incorporation (written before the national organization had been formed) specifies our name to be            Washington-Rochambeau Route, Inc. Our Bylaws use the name            Washington-Rochambeau Route of Delaware, Inc. Since the charter is senior to the bylaws, our proper legal name is            Washington-Rochambeau Route, Inc. Using this in conversation may cause confusion with the national organization.
