"Buy A Key" Piano Fundraiser, Mercer Island Parks & Recreation

“Buy A Key”
The Mercer Island Parks & Recreation Department is currently raising money to purchase a Yamaha

Clavinova digital piano. The Yamaha Clavinova is a quality instrument that can

be used by all ages and skill levels to create perform and record a variety of

music. Hundreds of students have experienced

using a Yamaha Clavinova piano at our summer Music Technology camps held at

Island Park elementary. We would like to expand our musical educational and

performance options by owning our own piano at the Community & Event Center.

This new piano will enable us to offer performances at our Senior Social

program, senior lunches, special events, gallery receptions, and lessons. The

piano will also be available for use by special event rental users.

We

are looking to our community to help make this a reality. For $100, you can

“Buy” A Key. Our goal is to raise $6,500. When 65 keys are sold, we will have

raised enough funds to purchase the piano. Everyone who "buys" a key will have

their name recognized on a temporary piano key poster board at the Community

& Event Center until after the fundraiser is over, as well as on a permanent plaque on the piano. . What a great holiday gift

idea for the music lover in your life! Call 206.275.7609, register at www.myparksandrecreation.com
