The Columbia River Chordsmen Chapter was formed
in 2002 when Bob Steen and Todd Ash got together with about a dozen other men to toss around
the idea of forming a barbershop chorus in the Tri-Cities area. That was then,
and now we have twice as many singers!
Our members are shown below; thanks to Wayne Hamilton for
the photographs. You can see our chapter officers by clicking

who like documents and politics, here is a link to ourbylaws (.doc format).
