Ringing in Southern California has its good points and bad points. The bad point is that we are a gazillion miles away from any other change ringers. The good point is that we get to ring outside for 10 months of the year. This was the group learning Plain Bob Major in the summer of 2014.
Plain Hunt Maximus
In October of 2014, we had six ringers and twelve bells, and decided to record us ringing Plain Hunt on 12 bells.
Plain Hunt is a fairly simple method. Each bell just “hunts” from its starting location down to the front (or back), then out to the back (or front), and returns to its home position. When ringing a single bell, it is fairly straightforward. When each person rings two bells each, then everyone has a different piece of work.
Our new blog!
Welcome to the website and blog for the Encinitas Handbell Change Ringers. We will blog about our activities as well as post links to Bell Board for our accomplishments, and to our videos on Youtube. If we ever have guests ring with us, we will be sure to mention that, as well as give a shout to your home tower.
Feel free to poke around. We’re still new to this website/blog thing, and so there is not a lot of content yet. Be patient! We will be bringing you the best of handbell change ringing from San Diego, right here.
