Our History
Rainier Ringers was founded in 1997 by Lois McMonnies who directed the ensemble until 2010. Doug Mjorud took the baton from Lois and then passed it to Ron Mallory who directed us from 2012 to 2015. Lois McMonnies returned as our director in 2016 while we were searching for a new director. Anastacia Caswell has been directing us since 2017. Karen Haas directed our 2021 Christmas Concert and is currently directing us for the 2022 Spring season.

Our Ringers
The Rainier Ringers consists of experienced ringers who enjoy performing a wide diversity of handbell repertoire while challenging their musical skills. We play on 5 octaves of Malmark bells and 5 octaves of Malmark chimes. Our weekly rehearsal space is provided through an agreement with First Lutheran Church in Tacoma, Washington.
