Jerry Zabriskie, Baw Faw Grange # 34, Curtis, WA
We have been at this five years. Our school is small so we use less than one box, however we carry the excess dictionaries over each year until we have enough to distribute one more year. Great project that gets our Grange involved with the local school.
Susan LaFleur, Rochester Grange # 257, Rochester, MA
Donating for 8 years. We are a small organization with older members so this is not only a very worthwhile project but also something we can easily do. Just keep up the good work. Our students love getting the books and look forward to us coming to the school.
Art Kinney, Ripley Grange # 65, Westfield, NY
We have been doing this for the last five years or so. We appreciate it and enjoy doing this project for our community.
Art Ries, Selah Heights Grange # 608, Selah, WA
Selah Heights Grange provides dictionaries for third grade students in Selah as participants in a statewide Grange program. It has been well received by the school teachers and administrators. The students usually write thank you notes that tell how they will use the dictionaries. The Dictionary Project has given Selah Heights Grange a recognition by the schools and community for a community service project.
Catherine E McPhail, Garden City Grange # 280, Snohomish, WA
Our Grange has been participating in The Dictionary Project for about 5 years. I think it is a wonderful project–it is one of the best ways to help students learn to build their vocabulary.
Tricia Eidsmoe, Studley Grange # 1174, Midland, MI
This is the 7th year we have done this project. The teachers love us giving dictionaries to their students. It’s a great project.
Alma A. Szeliga, Worcester Grange # 1274, Schenevus, NY
I believe this will be our 5th year of participating in the Dictionary Project. It is a very worthwhile project, does not require a lot of people or extra work, and just seeing the children’s faces light up when they receive them is extremely satisfying. An excellent program and so easy to make our orders through the internet.
Candy Smith, Williamsburg Grange # 225, Williamsburg, MA
This is our sixth year and we feel that the children have benefited from this great project.
Loren Mercer, Mason County Pomona Grange # 20, Olympia, WA
This is my 7th year of giving out the dictionaries in Mason County Washington. When I tell the students that they can write their name in the book, as it is your book, they just go crazy. You would think that I gave them a box of candy. It is the BEST thing going. Keep it up.
Marge Hagy, Brewster Grange # 1018, Brewster, WA
Enjoy for more than 7 years.
