Today, in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, band members Fiona Somers and John Danaher were married! Our Chairman, The Rev.

The band observed 9/11 by ringing at 8:46 a.m. and later by ringing a peal of half-muffled Stedman Cinques. This was Roger's 800th peal. For an hour, the sound control was fully open, causing the AP to mention the peal in its article about the new 9/11 memorial, and to quote members of the public as saying that bells were "spectacular" and "signif[ied] unity." |
