News for April

            Saturday 27 April, our Pomona meeting at Abernethy Grange, we are asking that you bring donations for the Veterans’ Village.  Always needed is paper products;  paper towels, toilet paper, paper plates.   Seems that sugar, butter and coffee go pretty quick also.  ( no decaffeinated coffee as not a single veteran at the village goes for it. )  Also needed is the type of hand soap that goes in a dispenser.  Other: toiletries, clothing ( men & women )

We want to make a big impact with our presentation after the Pomona meeting.   If cash is your thing, the committee will buy what is needed most at the village.

 APRIL IS GRANGE

       Redland Grange is spearheading a visit to the Clackamas County Commission  meeting on Thursday 4 April.  The meeting is at 10:00 am. at the county offices in the Red Soils complex.  A proclamation declaring April as Grange Month will be read at the meeting.    We would like to impress the commission and the TV audience with a good turn out.   See Georgene for more information.

MAY IS PRIMARY VOTING MONTH

             5 May is your Candidates Forum.  At Abernethy Grange.  1:00 pm the Grange will open with nachos and time to meet n greet.  2:00 pm the forum begins.   The legislative committee is asking each Grange to bring at least a dozen home made cookies   more is better.
