The objective of the California State Grange legislative policies is to represent the views of our diverse membership and the needs of their communities through grassroots advocacy.

The Grange provides its members a place to get involved and make their voices heard.

Direct involvement in the legislative process has been a key element of Grange programs since the organization's founding in 1867. As a community-based organization, the Grange provides a natural venue for the discussion of local, state and national issues. The Grange is unique among similar community-based organizations as its policy development is grassroots, its politics non-partisan and issues oriented.

Grangers meet in their local Community Granges and debate issues of common concern. Topics discussed range form issues of local concerns such as street maintenance and property taxes to international treaties and universal access to telecommunications products.

After debate the Community Grange members draft and vote on resolutions concerning the issues. If the issue is local, the members will pursue local solutions such as testifying at public hearings and writing letters to local government officials.

Resolutions covering state or national issues are sent by Community Grange to the State Grange for consideration by the delegate body at the Annual Session. Again, if the resolution passes with a majority vote of the representative delegate body, it becomes State Grange policy.

Any resolution addressing national issues are referred to the National Grange for consideration by the delegates at the annual National Grange Session. Those passed become National Grange policy.

LEG Community Comes Together To Bring Success:

St. Jude's Saddle Up & Ride 

+

BBQ

PICS

Sunday, the weather held up, so more than 30 kids and adults saddled up and rode for Saint Jude's cancer needs. Earning over $2,000 from pledges and donations to help kids stricken with this killer disease.

 

This year, like last year, was a big success in efforts by supporters, contributors, participants and of course those ever present enablers - our multi talented Lake Earl Grange volunteers.

 

The ride got underway at about 10am out at Mill Creek and wound up at about 1pm at our Lake Earl Grange Hall in Fort Dick for honors, awards and eats.

 

With horses stabled and tack stowed, all sat down to a hardy cowboy lunch (provided by the Grange Horse Group and Grange members) of limitless fresh vegetables, potatoe salad, fresh jumbo hamburgers and the stable of all trail rides, "cowboy beans". All with an extra large helping of Granger hospitality, washed down with equally unlimited bottled water, soda, juice and coffee.

 

After a short but informative presentation on cancer, awards for outstanding efforts and achievements were handed out. We also heard short talks and thank you-s on community involvement, support and action from Helen Ferguson, Dennis Mayo and Ed Salsedo.

 

Our Lake Earl Grange earned $2,107 for this worthy cause and to all those who donated their time, energies, guidance and all those incredible "fixings"  - WE ALL SAY A GREAT BIG "THAAAANNNK YOU!"
