Here is a beautiful, two-sided Grange ribbon, labeled Interlaken, Grange No. 323, Laconia, NH. The Interlaken Grange was organized on March 22, 1915. They met in downtown Laconia at the Knights of Phythias Hall on 2nd Wednesdays. (The Knights of Pythias Hall was built in 1886 by the Mount Belknap Lodge of the Knights of Pythias and was located in the Tilton Block, now the site of the Landmark hotel.) In 1942, when the Interlaken Grange went defunct, the group still had 60 members.

The Weirs Grange #248 was organized on August 13, 1896, and still had 38 members when it went defunct in 1984. Meetings were held twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays. The last officers of the Weirs Grange were Kenneth Drysten, Master; Louise Flint, Lecturer; and Lettie Straw, Secretary.
