2015-02-02 - Updated through online information from Sean Haley. -Database Manager

2017-05-04 - Updated by Dr. Walter E. Krueger, who has heard or played the organ. In addition Dr. Walter E. Krueger gave this as a source of information: I have been organist at Augustana Lutheran since 2014 and was involved with the current refurbishment project as advisor.<br> An extensive refurbishment program was concluded in 2015 by Bond Organ Builders. We will attempt to share the current stoplist (with annotations). There is one entirely new stop and two more prepared for. The old failed Kimball windchest has been destroyed and a new 8-stop windchest replaces it. <br>The organ has never sounded better. The revoicing by Richard Bond is wonderful! -Database Manager
