Day 16 — Boise, ID to Salt Lake City, UT

It is hard to believe this is our last bus day! The drive from Boise to Salt Lake City is a little long, but we were able to get some sightseeing in at Shoshone Falls outside of Twin Falls, ID. Can you imagine how big these falls are in the spring?

The last day of tour is filled with special traditions—we filled out our tour manuals (similar to writing in each others' yearbook), listened to our last parable, and Katie read the last day of tour poem Ed used to read us all. 

We arrived at CUMC to the best potluck dinner of all time! Bell ringers have great taste in food, and their parents cook amazing things!

Terry and Katie are excited to be back in SLC!

First year ringer Ella gave the last dinner thank you on tour—missing the bus already!

After the tasty potluck, the ringers did one of their best concerts this tour and one of the best home concerts ever! So proud of these ringers for their music and hard work. 

 

Cian Chidester, our lead ringer, earned both an Honor Bell (given by the directors) and the Marsha Vilven Award (voted on by ringers). Congratulations Cian!!

A special appearance by founding director, Ed Duncan. 

Gina Williams, tour chaperone and super bell volunteer, was honored as an Honorary Wesley Bell Ringer tonight. Gina is a fantastic volunteer to this organization and has done many great things for WBR. Thanks Gina!

Tour chaperones all together!
