The National Grange Youth Dept. unveiled its new logo on Nov. 15 at the 147^th Annual Session in Manchester, New Hampshire.  The new logo still carries the traditional green and gold colors featured in the previous “key” logo, but the new logo sports a streamlined design.  The letters “G” and “Y” (for Grange Youth) are shown over the seven sided shield of the Grange logo with vertical stripes that are reminiscent of corn rows.

Merchandise featuring the new logo was unveiled at the convention and should be available through the Grange Store very soon.
