Notes

2021-03-11 - Identified via email from Dave Luecking (2021-03-10). -- I volunteer at LaSalle Retreat Center in Wildwood, Mo., and LaSalle has a 1929 Kilgen Pipe Organ in its chapel. The organ, which has wood pipes, originally was built for St. George High School in Evanston, Ill., and installed in 1929. St George, which was run by the Christian Brothers, opened in 1927 and closed in 1969. After the school closed, the Brothers moved the organ to LaSalle, which they were in the process of renovating at the time. -Jim Stettner
