Indiana—The Indiana Academy (IA) Bell Choir performed for the annual Christmas luncheon of the Hamilton North Chamber of Commerce on Dec. 7, 2004. This annual event brings local business owners together to talk about issues effecting the local economy. The Bell Choir has been invited to perform there annually for the past few years.

In a note from Deborah Orr, Chamber of Commerce program director, she says, "Thanks to the Indiana Academy Bell Choir for sharing your musical talents with our group. Your participation in our Holiday Celebration is greatly appreciated."

We were glad to be of service to our local community. The IA Bell Choir, since its inception in 1997, has played for churches, schools, and special community Christmas programs. The ten-member group also participated in the Adventist-run Ringfest 2004 in Toledo, Ohio, sponsored by the Toledo Adventist Junior Academy.
