Chapter President Michael Slavin found this interesting article about an Atlantic City piano technician who is fighting the city's plan to condemn his shop by eminent domain in order to create a two-and-a-half-block tourism district: Atlantic City Piano Man Prepares for a Fight
Michael also snapped this photo of a piano in front of a general store in Norwich, Vermont (Hobart M. Cable console). It was surprisingly playable and reasonably in tune.
The June meeting was our season-end dinner party, which was held on on Tuesday evening June 10, 2014 at Sangria 71 in Williston Park. Consequently, there are no minutes this month.
