interest of all Penn
sylvanians.”
Throughout the Com
monwealth, “local Grangers
serve as community centers
in small communities across
the state.”
“They are often the hub of
community activity,” the
Governor said, “used by
citizens and officials as a
convenient forum for
community planning.
Citing the Grange for
taking “an active role in the
process of legislation and
government,” he recalled
that it “has participated in
numerous community im
provement programs.”
In conclusion, Thornburgh
proclaimed April 20 to 26 as
Pennsylvania Grange Week
and urged “all Penn
sylvanians to recognize the
contributions of the Grange
in the growth and
development of agriculture
in the Commonwealth.
