At the State Session, Grangers from across the state gather to deliberate on resolutions, attend workshops and set policy for the upcoming year. In addition to our business, we see friends from around the state, go out to eat, stay up all night having fun playing card games and enjoying conversation, and sometimes hitting the pool or gym.
