Vassalboro Grange is located at 351 Main Street in Vassalboro, Maine.
Vassalboro Grange not only recently added fifteen new members, but those members are also working hard to “get our Grange back on track.” They recently received a National Grange Rural Life Initiative Grant to help. Master/President Holly Weidner notes that a current challenge is “to keep up with all the reporting of our work.”
That work includes updating their bylaws and electing a full slate of officers. We can definitely add Vassalboro Grange #322 to the list of exciting Granges! Stay tuned. There’s more to come!
