Notes

2010-11-25 - Identified through on-line information from Chad Boorsma -- It appears that the chimes may have been added after the original installation. The Great division is located in the left chamber, and the Swell is in the right. The congregation now worships in a contemporary style, and the organ has not been used in the last few years. -Database Manager
