    At about 9:00 PM in the evening of May 31, the new ALGEHR web site was "switched on" to use the Wild Apricot based pages and membership management system. The new site has better security: note the Captcha step as part of the Login process and the requirement for strong passwords! As well, Members Only pages are hidden until members log in.

    We hope you like the new look and find it easier to use!

ALGEHR welcomes members of all ages, cultures, economic backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, gender expressions, mental and physical abilities, and sexual orientations who contribute to the art and joy of handbell ringing.
