In Memoriam http:///GrangeShowArticle.asp?ID=5516 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 07:00:01 GMT 5516 Way back in 1950 six Granges, five of whom met on the 2nd and 4th Fridays (It seems the 6th member was a Grange that was located in a convenient, centrally located area) decided to form a "club" that met on a fifth Friday once a year so they could get together with Grangers with whom they could not neighbor. Thus began the 2-4-5 Club.
