January 15, 2025 - Phase one of the Manson Grange renovation project has begun! Several Grange members, local volunteers and Rotary Club members were at the Grange to begin the demolition of the basement bathrooms. This was prep work for our contractor, Jeff Gerot, so he and his crew can start the task of recreating this space. Watch our website for photos, progress, and fundraising. It’s happening, folks! The Grange is on the move to better serve our local community. Please join our efforts by checking the Home Page for how to get involved or email: riddelltc@gmail.com
