Welcome to Dows Prairie Grange

**THIS WEBSITE IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING CHANGES, SOME PAGES MAY BREAK IN THE PROCESS**

Thank you for your patience!

The Grange is a family-oriented, community organization with its roots in agriculture. Founded in 1867, the Grange was formed as a national organization with a local focus. Since 1932, Dows Prairie Grange has been an important part of the McKinleyville community. Over the years, it has reinvented itself to meet the ever changing needs of our local citizens and neighbors. Today our focus is on serving community needs and especially supporting youth organizations and activities.

We aim to be a gathering place for the community to promote fellowship so we hold monthly breakfasts and flea markets. We support local groups by opening our hall to events such as Winter Express, local history lectures, first aid and CPR classes, emergency preparedness training, youth groups and many other local needs. Our hall is available for rental for all types of events and activities such as memorials and weddings.

Dows Prairie Grange meets at 6pm on the third Wednesday of every month. Visitors are most welcome.
