It was on August 7, 1993 when the Neversweats Chapter #1863, E Clampus Vitus had a plaque dedication of Susanville’s iconic Grand Cafe. While it has been shuttered for many years, rumor on the street that it will re-open later this year.

The plaque states: “Established in 1909, the Grand was first operated by Kwan Wong In 1912, the Grand moved to this location and in 1921 Sam Vucanovich and Steve Sargent became the new owners. The original building collapsed in 1934 from construction next door and the Grand reopened in this building in 1935 with Steve Sargent at the helm, accompanied by his wife Helen. For over seventy years the Sargent family has been dedicated to serving the public’s needs.”
