GRANGE IN ACTION

The State President In Action program is designed to encourage State Grange Presidents to be active in their state, such as giving presentations to communities, working with local Granges at dinners or meetings, and participating in other events or projects, no matter how small. I am encouraging all State Grange Presidents to participate. This will allow you to show some of the things you are doing. State Presidents who wish to be recognized at the 2026 National Grange Convention as a “State President In Action” should complete the following requirements:

• Submit 1 letter-sized page with color photos and a brief caption (Suggested: Only 140 words) of three (3) different events/activities; with no more than 1 photo for each event for a total of 3 photos, from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026. Anything over
  1 page will be disqualified.
• The State Grange Name must be on the front of the page.
• On a separate page, please include the name, address, phone and/or cell number, and email address of the person who submitted the Grange In Action.
• If you assist in organizing a new or reorganized Grange, you will qualify as a “Super State President in Action.”
• If one of your events/activities/meetings is on Project Sustenance, you will qualify as a “Diamond State President in Action.”
• If one of your events/activities/meetings is on mental health, you will qualify as a “Golden State President in Action.”
• The deadline to submit your application to the National Grange is midnight on September 1, 2026, either by postmark or by email.
  • Mail to National Grange, ATTN: Loretta Washington – 1616 H Street NW, Suite 300, Washington, DC 20006.
  • Email to Loretta Washington - lwashington@nationalgrange.org. Please write “State President In Action 2026 report” in the subject line.

Some of the entries might be displayed online.

Those State Presidents who submit an entry will receive a certificate of recognition and achievement from the National Grange.
