Huntsburg Grange

WHAT IS THE GRANGE?

America's Foremost Volunteer and Grassroots Organization. The Grange is comprised of families and individuals who share a common interest in community involvement, agricultural and rural issues working together in a family environment. Programs, projects, and activities offered in every local Grange reflect the interests and talents of its members with special focus on family activities.

Huntsburg Grange is for people who like gardening, photography, animals, baking, sewing, old time crafts, talking, contests, going places, community affairs, or rural life.

Huntsburg Grange meets on the second Monday of each month at the Huntsburg Town Hall, 15709 Mayfield Rd. (Rt. 322), Huntsburg, at 6:30 p.m.

These are eating, working, planning, laughing meetings and you are welcome to come!

BANDSTAND UPDATE

Donations and sidewalk brick sales are ongoing to finalize this project in the Huntsburg Park at Rt. 322 and Rt. 528. Bricks are for sale for $45 each including the engraving. Call any listed numbers for more information.

Concerts begin June 20, 2009. See below for listings.

About Farmland Preservation . . .
An important reminder to all owners of farmland in Huntsburg (and anywhere else in Geauga County):

The Farmland Preservation Act may well be the way for Geauga to protect its precious farmland and the way of life we now enjoy. Contact Maurine Orndorff at the Geauga County Farmland Preservation Office at (440) 285-2222 ext. 3530 for information ... or call Jacquie at (440-636-5510) for a short summary to help you know if this program might be for you.

Huntsburg has a Junior Grange! Children from the age of 5 to the age of 8 are welcome.

Activities include crafts, contests, and fieldtrips. Meetings will be once a month. Parents do not have to be in the Grange for children to be in Junior Grange.

For more information call Jacquie Foote at 636-5510.

Huntsburg Grange Members, along with Grange Members from Ledge, and Hambden meet the third Saturday of each month for Pomona Grange (Geauga County Grange).

Bet you didn't know!

. . . The Grange was started shortly after the Civil War.

Perhaps
because of this, the flag and the Bible are honored at each formal meeting.
