Young Ringers Camp

Three pieces have been selected and are listed below.
A fourth piece will be chosen in the Spring of 2025. All four pieces must be purchased by the participating choirs.
However, come to camp with only these three rehearsed.
Directors may mark the fourth piece, but do not review it with your ringers, as it will be taught at camp.

The title of the 4th piece will be posted here after February, 2025.

YRC SOLO PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITY

Each participating choir is encouraged to prepare one or more solo pieces to perform at the Sunday closing concert.
The solo does not necessarily have to be a handbell composition. Be creative!
