HANDBELLS! 7 pm at Tibbetts United Methodist Church (WSB sponsor), a melodic way to end your weekend:

Tintabulations, a handbell group from Reno, Nevada, will be doing a concert at Tibbetts UMC on Sunday, July 24 at 7 PM. Donations collected at the door will be used to cover their touring expenses. They will be joined by local handbell group Bells of the Sound on two pieces, which both groups will be performing at the International Handbell Symposium in Vancouver, BC later this week as they represent the Handbell Musicians of America in the International Concert at this event.
