Today offers an opportunity to break away from the world of academia and focus on music! Richard, Kathie and I will head over to the Bouffy Quimby hall in Turner to play some music as part of a grangers luncheon (or that's our understanding, sometimes these functions are entirely different than what we expect). We'll play a nice collection of jigs and reels with a few slower tunes mixed in for good measure. If you want to know more about grange, check out their website. http://www.nationalgrange.org/about/mission.htm
The Grange provides opportunities for individuals and families to develop to their highest potential in order to build stronger communities and states, as well as a stronger nation through: FELLOWSHIP, SERVICE, and LEGISLATION
My parents and grandparents were members Grange and I have to admit I don't know much about what they did or why they chose to be grangers. Maybe I'll gain some insight today.
