Event Details
Calling all ringers, directors and directors that want to ring! We listened, we responded, and we have our next social event scheduled … Come join us on October 25th from 1:00 to 4:00pm, at Easthampton Congregational Church (112 Main Street, Easthampton MA), for sight reading Advent and Christmas music.
Also, if any directors would like to take the podium, we always need people to help guide us through the pieces. This will not only be a great opportunity for ringers to learn from other ringers, but also directors to learn from other directors. For anyone interested in directing, I will email the links to the Jeffers pieces that we will be ringing. We are not shooting for perfection, just for fun! It’s a great way to practice with a larger group. AND, when you are not directing, you can be ringing!
This time, we will have LESS music (about 9 pieces) and we will ring through each piece twice. We are not shooting for perfection, just fun! We are targeting levels 1+ to 3+ to give everyone the chance to feel confident and successful. In addition to simply having a good time, what a great opportunity to test out a few pieces and see if you’d like to purchase anything else for your holiday season. There will be something for everyone. All music will be available for purchase, some for a discount and NO SHIPPING charges.
Please fill out this form if you are planning to attend. Yes, walk-ins are still welcome! This is just for fun, so bring your family and friends too. Donations will be accepted to cover music shipping charges.
What to Bring
Participants need only bring gloves and a split-back binder, if possible.
