Mission Statement
To enhance the
positive goals and abilities of all Juniors and Youth within the
program in an exciting and challenging atmosphere while maintaining
and encouraging positive community involvement.
Program Development
Statement
The committee has structured a program that is
designed to be flexible enough to provide both structure and
exploration in all Grange activities as both an individual and as a
family. With the focus on all aspects of the members’ lives, we
have, and will, continue to seek and accept suggestions as to any
changes members may feel are needed or desired. We continue to
strive to make a positive and meaningful contribution to each member
and his/her family and community.
