Who We Are

Formed in 2004, this auditioned community handbell ensemble performs in south-central Pennsylvania seasonally during April & December. We've played in churches, nursing homes, and even the White House (see photo below). The group numbers fifteen on a regular basis and rings on seven and a half octaves of Malmark handbells, six octaves of Malmark Choirchimes, four octaves of Petit & Fritsen handbells, and two octaves of Schulmerich Silver Melody Bells 
and is under the direction of Artistic Director, Dr. Shawn Gingrich. Visit our YouTube Channel to view content and subscribe.

Please consider giving a special donation or naming us as recipient of your Thrivent Choice Dollars.
