SHOW YOUR PRIDE

Have you ever seen someone wearing a jacket that shows what organization or activity they participate in? Chances are that they are proud of the association that they have with the organization or activity. What do you and your fellow members do to show your pride in your Grange?

Your Grange could order tee shirts, jackets, hats, or other clothing so that each member could exhibit their pride. Get something for every car, a license plate holder, decal, bumper sticker, or even a special license plate. Consider a house sign, mailbox sign, or decal that members can display at home or at their business. Use a member’s home computer for small numbers and professional sources for larger numbers of items.

When members display their pride in the Grange, people will ask about their Grange. Displaying pride is part of setting the stage to recruiting new members. Appoint a committee to investigate different ways of showing Grange pride in your community.

Members who show their pride in their Grange make growth happen!
