The Northwest Campanologist 
This is a special edition of the Campanologist to notify everyone that the Greater Puget Sound Handbell Conference needed to be cancelled. We are very sorry if you were making plans to attend. There will not be an All Area event this year; it will be in 2017. However, there are other events coming up in April and it's not too late to register:
- April 8 & 9 - Inland Northwest Handbell Workshop in Pullman, Washington, with Phyllis Tincher, clinician. Late registration fee waived so it would still be $50.
- April 29 & 30 - Siskiyou Summit Handbell Conference in Ashland, Oregon, with Cathy Moklebust, clinician. Late registration fee waived so it would still be $65.
See articles below for more details and links to registration.

FREE Handbell Tables!
FREE!! 3 used Peery handbell tables, trapezoidal 60" x 70" x 30", with adjustable legs, and plastic music racks with aluminum brackets which slide into sockets in the table. The tables are padded, with the padding wrapped in muslin. Royal blue covers and skirting are included, as well as heavy black canvas zippered carry cases for each table. Canvas sleeves for the plastic racks are also included. The aluminum brackets have a 6" offset which places the music rack closer to the ringer, as if it were a 24" deep table.
These are the heavy duty tables with welded support bracing for the legs. Each table has a large carry handle mounted underneath for easy carry even when inside the canvas carry case. The tables can be stored in the carry cases, folded, fully dressed and skirted.
These tables will be donated to any tax-exempt organization who can arrange for their pickup in Billings, MT. Please contact C. Pierson,
gabcbells@bresnan.net.
