Repost from Handbell-L

Interested in visiting the gorgeous region of Tuscany… and playing
handbells while you're there? Handbell Ventures is sponsoring its second
"Soggiorno in Italia" and looking for more ringers. I traveled with the
group for their inaugural trip in March of '09 and had an absolutely amazing
time. We visited the Uffizi in Florence, ate gelato among the towers of San
Gimignano, toured a winery in Chianti, and perfected a repertoire of pieces
to perform at three concerts during our stay. Our next trip promises to be
just as much fun — and I admit I've been looking forward to it since the
day I left in 2009!
 
We're staying even closer to Florence this time around and, while there are
several planned group activities (my favorite memories from the last trip
were the long, delicious, Italian-style meals we shared together), there
will also be down time to explore on your own or just to relax in the
beautiful Villa le Fonti where our group will be based. You can visit our
webpage at https://sites.google.com/site/bellsintuscany/ for more details.
 
We will be abroad from July 9 through July 16, 2011. The land package is
$2,295 and includes lodging, group transportation in Italy, and some meals.
Email me or William Kyle at william@baybells.org for more information –
we'd love to have you along.
