"The Aromas Grange #361 was formed in 1913 in a small community in the central coast region of California by 25 charter members. The original name of the community was Vega, but it was changed to Aromas in 1918. It is the sixth oldest existing Grange in the state. The Grange secured a library for the town, a railroad depot and was instrumental in starting the Fire Department, raising money to buy the first fire truck. Members of the Aromas Grange sponsored the first Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts and 4H Club. All three youth activities are still supported by and carry on meetings at the Grange." (

Visit Instructions:
To post a visit to an existing Grange Hall waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the chapter in the background if that is possible. Including your gps device in the picture is not neccesary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval. If your Grange Hall has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
