Are you signed up to receive newsletters from Bells of the Cascades? If you are, you would have received information this past weekend about our annual Read & Ring event coming up on August 16! We're getting the news out just a bit later than usual this year, but never fear! It's on!
If you are NOT signed up for our newsletter, you can always go here and let us know that you want to keep in touch!

So... we're returning this year to Emmanuel Presbyterian in West Linn, OR because we hope that it will be a little more convenient location for many of you who want to attend.
Emmanuel Presbyterian Church
19200 Willamette Drive
West Linn, OR
9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Registration fee: $35 if you register online and make payment at any time before the day of the event; $45 if you pay at the door. We'll accept payment at the door by cash, check, or credit card. It helps us a great deal if you pre-register and pre-pay, but we understand the need for last-minute decisions sometimes, so walk-in registration is always welcome!
If you've never attended one of these, this is a no-pressure opportunity to sightread some music and meet new people, which is always a lot of fun! And it's also an opportunity to ring under the direction of Matthew Compton, who, as many of you already know, is a pretty darn awesome handbell conductor and composer. Matthew picks music for us that is generally in the Level 2-3 range, with possibly a few Level 1's. There are three sessions, with a 15-minute break between the first two, and a 45-minute lunch break (bring your own).
Optionally, at the end of the day, handbell directors can purchase any of the music at a discount for their choirs to use during the year.
