Re: Inquiry about bellringing lessons for high end tour promoter
We should also think about liability insurance for this. Having a
random group of high-end tourists (who probably have expensive
lawyers) walk up the tower and start ringing is very different from
bringing friends for free. We will have no way of pre-screening people
for how well they follow directions or what their physical condition
is. And people who pay large amounts of money to do something don't
like being told that they can't do it because they aren't behaving.
