NOVEMBER 2007 --
“THE GRANGE IS a Family Organization that is open to men, women and teenagers. The Grange provides Service to the Community, support to agriculture and assists the needy. Grangers support their own members in times of need and keep in contact with housebound members. GRANGERS ALSO HAVE FUN!”
