The Rutherford of today bears little resemblance to the Rutherford I knew growing up. But one of the buildings appears to have changed little over the years: The Rutherford Grange Hall.
It' a very unpretentious building.
Just like the whole town of Rutherford was.
Just like the town of Oakville was.
Just like the town of Yountville was.
But the times, they are a changin'
And because they are changing, it gets more important every day, to retain our ties to the past. And if need be, to make a significant effort to retain our ties to the past. That's easy to say, but how many people are willing to make that significant effort?
Well, in the case of the Rutherford Grange Hall, there were enough.
Does this sound like something that you'd like to be a part of? If so, you're in luck!
