April 5: Membership Committee Invited

May 3: Coventry comes with the program. Ref. Claudia & Dawn June 7: Short Program – Election of Officers – Ref. Charlene

The Family Activities Committee provided a good program in March. Lots of news of coming events and some very interesting facts and jokes about snowmen. Did you know that the biggest snowperson was created in Bethel Maine in 2008. It was 122 ft Tall and had 27 foot pine trees for arms. Car truck tires were used as eyes and car tires were used to form the mouth and buttons. It finally melted in July.

In April we are back in the Hall as we wait to meet the membership Committee. Like many other Granges we are ageing and need ideas to attract new members, especially younger ones.

This is a plea for those members who haven’t been able to or just don’t want to attend meetings. Please come in and support your grange.

If you want change, staying home won’t make it happen. If you want programs about things that interest you, let us know. If you are not happy, tell us why. Sitting home in silence accomplishes nothing. Come to the next meeting and bring a friend. The welcome mat is waiting for you.

In closing I want to extend condolences to the family of Gordon Gibson, he was not only a friend and mentor, but he was also a well-respected member of the State Grange Executive Committee and no one was better in teaching the proper way to write a resolution. He will be missed.
