We are small community grange ( #955) located in North Bend Washington as part of the Washington State Grange system. We give our music, our service, and our fellowship. Our grange hold member meetings twice a month, the first and third Mondays. The Sallal Grange was originally chartered on September 4th, 1930, where it represented the towns of North Bend, Meadowbrook, and Snoqualmie. The Grange wa
s an upstanding community supported resource, but changing times and declining membership took its toll, and on December 31st, 2007 the Grange relinquished its charter. Starting January 2010 the Grange has been revitalized to help keep the Grange spirit alive in the Snoqualmie Valley. More about the Grange:
The Grange is a grass roots organization that began in 1867, in the aftermath of the destructive and divisive Civil War. Rising from the fields and farmlands, we gathered on common ground to heal and support each other, work together, and honor traditional values. We built halls across the rural landscape of America, inviting family, friends and neighbors to share the harvest from the fields and celebrate the bounty of life. For more than 140 years, we’ve preserved our founding principles of unity, liberty and charity. Cities and townships have grown up around our rural halls and the Grange has evolved into a community service organization with members and local Grange Halls across the country. Grange halls are often the center of their community, providing opportunities, culture and education, entertainment, emergency shelter, and a meeting place where new friends are made and old friends are cherished. Everyone is welcome to apply for membership in the Grange. Each member contributes at their own pace and level of participation. Each Grange decides how to best serve the community. The benefits of membership are many;
•Personal fulfillment from making a difference in your community.
•Fun, family-friendly experiences where young and old alike share.
•Discounts on products and services.
•The comfort of knowing that as a Grange member, you are never alone. The Grange supports and advocates for healthy communities, family farms, local economies, cultural diversity, public schools and education, the arts, and a variety of charitable causes. The Grange is family-friendly and has special programs for juniors, youth, young adults and women. The Grange was the first national organization to support and promote women as equal voting members. The Grange is non-partisan and non-denominational. Everyone is welcome to apply for membership and we at Sallal Grange would be honored if you join us. Drop us a note for more info, Thanks.
