March 11, 2021 -- Winchester Grange held its February Zoom meeting on the 23rd with a good turnout of members and guests which included State Chaplain Charles Dimmick, State Exec. Comm. Chair Alma Graham and Public Relations Co-Director Bob Charbonneau.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, a vote was taken to officially cancel the 2021 Strawberry Festival. The Laurel Festival has also been canceled for this year -- traditionally partnered with our Festival the following weekend. The 350th Anniversary celebration of the Town of Winchester has also been postponed to 2022 making it the 350 plus 1 celebration instead.
Our members have taken to Zoom very well and look forward to each meeting but I am sure each and every one is waiting for that day when we can finally schedule an in-person meeting and re-open our beautiful hall. The vaccinations will hopefully bring COVID-19 under control and allow us to resume some sense of our lives prior to the outbreak.... soon!
