Castle Hill Grange
The Castle Hill Grange Hall Preservation Society, under future fund-raisers, twill be holding a bean supper on Aug. 30. More information to come. They are also thinking of having karaoke later this summer, along with a food sale. All their fund-raisers just keep the hall operating. They would like you to please give them an hour of your time once a month to help keep the building operating. The fund-raisers they have are just paying their expenses and leave them with little else to do their projects. If you have enjoyed voting, going to town meetings, their suppers, having a reasonable hall to rent right in your own town and other events, please consider helping to keep their organization going for future years. Working member is $10 per year, $15 for non-working member or $100 for a lifetime membership. Their meetings are the fourth Tuesday of the month from February through November. They are now renting the hall from May thru October for showers, reunions, birthdays and parties. Please see any member for details. They are requesting that anyone who has knowledge of a veteran who served in the military between 1903 to the present to write or call Natalie Maynard, 2877 State Road, Castle Hill, ME 04757 or call 764-4878.
