At the time of printing, a Town Meeting had been called for March 23 to discuss the fate of the Grange Hall in Bridgewater. For those who may not be aware, this hall had been turned over to the Town of Bridgewater a number of years ago with the understanding the Grange would have continued use of the building. Recently, the town had determined that the building was insufficiently supported by a foundation of rock, rubble and dirt. The First Selectman presented a plan to replace the existing hall with a new modern one. This, of course, upset Grange members and town residents who would rather preserve the building than replace it. The March 23 meeting was to also feature a presentation by Grange Master Nancy Mascio on Bridgewater Grange and its importance to the community. We are sure they will have more on this meeting and the future of the building in coming issues.
