Steinway will give a tour of its NY factory in June. We need to select a weekday and the tour begins 9 AM sharp. We can have a group of 20.


Who's interested?


Regards,

Hi fingers,

Count us in! Is this specific to PW only? Also, hopefully it will be after the last day of school.

Count me in but please announce the date ASAP because there are a few dates when I may not be available and then I can give up my spot.

Hey, fingers! Count me in, unless I walk under the plate press at M&H on Wednesday. Been there, done that, ready to do it again!

Spoke with Steinway...

We can do the tour on Tuesday June 19th.

Details:

Time: 9 AM
Length: 2-3 hours
Cameras permitted BUT certain restrictions apply
No video please

I will tell you that the factory tour is something very special. At least it was for me.

Who's in?

Regards,
fingers

Laura and I might be able to make it. I have to find out when we're choosing the pianos for the concert but I'm sure we can work around it. Is there a fee for this? Laura's husband would also be there, and maybe mine (plus baby). Thanks for arranging this, fingers. Too bad it couldn't later in the week so more out of town people could attend.

The tour is free. smile
The only available dates for that week were either Mon. or Tues. I chose Tues.

I'll check into potential safety issues regarding your baby. It is VERY active with machinery, tools , debris etc.

fingers
