Message from the Dean |
| Welcome to our webpage! Visitors might like to know that our Chapter is tiny, but because of its size, enjoys almost 100% participation in Chapter activities. Our community (Eureka, Arcata, McKinleyville, Fortuna) is on the beautiful North Coast of California and is 200 miles from any population center of any size and surrounded by redwood forest. Pipe organs in the area range from a one-manual tracker to a 4-manual electric action instrument. Our organists include a DMA-holder in organ performance practice. We welcome all communication from other organists! We offer organ scholarships which pay for one/half of 12 private lessons. Contact the Dean of the Chapter for application forms. |

Christ Episcopal Church, home of past dean Dr. Moorehead, has signed a contract for the installation of a new III/35? organ by Ohio builder KEGG around Easter of 2007. We are all very excited as it will replace the tired instrument which has been our only recital organ on the north coast. |
