SACR Striking Competition and AGM: St Andrews

St Andrews is hosting the AGM and Striking Competition. 

Unfortunately, we will not be able to ring at Dundee in the morning but there is plenty to do in St Andrews if you would like to make a day of it! Walks in the town and on the beach, and the Himalayas putting green to name a couple of options. 

A rough outline for the day will be as follows:

• Lunch – people to organise their own. No hall available but plenty of green space if sunny or coffee shops if not.
• Striking competition from 1pm–4pm. General ringing until 4pm if the competition has finished. Plenty of space in the chapel for people to shelter if weather poor
• 4pm–4:15pm short service (tbc)
• Move to nearby hall for AGM and tea
• General ringing 6pm–7pm

The rules for the striking competition are available from master@sacr.org. Please do encourage as many people as possible to take part. It is a six-bell competition and the bells at St Andrews are nice and easy to ring. Two trophies are available: One for the overall winner and one for the best performing band with limited experience. It is also possible for a scratch band to enter, so really everyone has the opportunity to ring!

Please let Ruth know if your tower is planning to enter a band for the competition (master@sacr.org) as soon as possible.
