Save the Whalom Park Carousel Organ
By Jeff Bridges

Hello all, thank you for all your responses to my request for a MIDI
controller for a band organ [030916 MMDigest].  I will contact you
soon.  Now for an alert to all of us that love mechanical music:

Whalom Park, in Lunenburg, Massachusetts, has closed for good.  If
anyone in the Massachusetts area is close by there, give them a call
and find out what they are going to do with their carousel band organ.
Let's not let a piece of history, nor the carousel, go to waste!
If you know of someone that has the room for a carousel and band organ
then let's save a piece of history!  They have closed the park for
good and are selling off the rides, so I have been told.  If I had
the room and resources I would buy them.  They are also selling the
roller coaster.

Take care, everyone.
Sincerely, Jeff Bridges
