SUMMARY:Aromas Grange Potluck and Business Meeting
DESCRIPTION:What is a Grange? \nA Grange\, first and foremost\, is a group of passionate people dedicated to serving their community\, and thereby making the world a better place. Here in Aromas we are fortunate to also have a Grange Hall\, a friendly\, beautiful facility where Grange members and other community organizations can meet and gather for all kinds of events and activities. \nAt the state and national levels\, the Grange is a political lobbying organization\, steadfastly non-partisan and historically focused on protecting the rights of farmers and other small landholders and giving them a political voice. In California\, the Aromas Grange is partnering with other action Granges in the state and the new State Grange leadership to help restore the larger Grange institution to its populist roots. Click here to learn more about the California State Grange. \nIn Aromas\, the Grange is at the heart of an active\, thriving community. If you want to know what’s going on in town\, come join us and find out! We meet on the second Friday of every month\, with a potluck dinner starting at 6:30\, the business meeting starts at 7:15. \nFor more information about the Aromas Grange go to http://www.aromasgrange.org/
