\"\"Any Grange member interested in participating in a rigorous, hands-on training program in communications, with additional resources for membership, programming and engagement, is invited to apply for the 2019 Communication Fellows program.<\/p>\n

The program, is made possible thanks to generous funders, but there are a limited number of spots available. Fellows receiving the bulk of their training during a 9-day experience at the 153rd Annual National Grange Convention, held this year Nov. 1-9 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Those selected also are expected to make time for several teleconferences between June and October, as well as a few brief assignments prior to the start of National Convention.<\/p>\n

This year, Fellows will hear from the National Master, National Grange Staff and Officers, other communications professionals and more. Fellows will produce content for the daily convention newsletter, interviews and content for our social media channels and stories\/elements for Good Day!™ magazine, livestream events – and much more. This is a hands-on training with a support from many of the more than 40 previous Fellows who have participated in the program since 2012. Those previous Fellows now hold many significant offices and jobs in their State and National Grange and often credit the program with providing them insight into the differences across State Granges and the opportunities and challenges to the organization, as well as great motivation for being part of our next 150+ years of service.<\/p>\n

Any Grange member in good standing may apply, but all applicants must have a nomination letter from a State Master\/National Delegate; National Officer; National Grange Staff Member or past Communication Fellow.<\/p>\n

The deadline for all materials to be submitted by email to the National Grange Communications Department via email (co************<\/span>@************<\/span>ge.org<\/span>) is PRIOR to \u201cstart of business\u201d (9 a.m. Eastern) Monday, May 20.<\/p>\n

Early submissions will receive priority evaluation. Those who have not participated in the past will receive highest priority and special consideration will be given to applicants from states never before represented in the program. Please inform the Communications Department as soon as you know you will be applying, even if you have not yet completed the application materials, so we are prepared to organize submissions accordingly and let us know who your recommendation letter will come from. We will follow up with you and them if we do not receive the letter in a timely fashion.
