6 A SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2017 K ETTLE C AMPAIGN KICK OFF Ada Grange celebrates its roots Saturday The Grange is a community organization with its roots in agriculture. It has been instru- mental in bringing rural access to mail delivery and electrici- ty, social reforms including women’s suffrage and assist- ing groups such as deaf and hard of hearing through finan- cial contributions and aware- ness campaigns. Founded in 1867, the Grange was formed as a national organization with a local focus. In this area, Ada Grange is active in community service projects, non-partisan legisla- tive advocacy and promoting education and good citizen- ship. To celebrate the 150th birth- day of the National Grange, the public is invited to attend a special bingo day at Ada Grange Hall, located 10 miles out Canary Road, on Saturday, Dec. 2. The kitchen will open at noon serving the regular bingo menu. Bingo starts at 1 p.m. For more information, con- tact Nancy Flatley at 541-997- 2380.
