Notes

2010-04-10 - Updated through online information from Chad Boorsma. -- Burton Heights Christian Reformed Church disbanded ca. 2005. Koren Grace Christian Reformed Church has occupied the building since that time. The pipes are in a center chamber with some exposed, fake pipes. The Great and Pedal divisions are in front. The Choir and Swell divisions are under separate expression behind the front divisions. The console has been altered. At some point, the music rack, drawknobs, coupler rocking tablets, pistons, and nameplate were replaced. The toe studs are original but do not work. -Database Manager
