An early reminder (one year in advance, but ...): the National
Carousel Association (NCA) will be visiting Seabreeze Park as
part of its national convention on Saturday, September 12, 2020,
Seabreeze Park's "Final Fling Weekend".
I'm sure Dan Robinson, editor of the NCA's quarterly publication,
"Merry-Go-Roundup," will publish a big write-up about the Seabreeze
carousel and its Verbeeck replica-Wurlitzer-165 band organ. Check
at the NCA website, https://carousels.org/
After its badly-needed renovation this past winter the organ will
have been playing continuously and faithfully, season after season,
for just short of twenty-five years.

P.S.: The park's music roll collection has now outgrown its huge
84-roll cabinet!
