Somehow or other I find myself being consulted about good dates for
a proposed COAA (Carousel Organ Association of America) "Band Organ"
rally at Cooperstown, New York.

At present the COAA web site http://www.coaa.us/ has the following
summer events listed:

  May 26-28, 2012, Lake Winnepesaukah Amusement Park
  June 9-10, 2012, Knoebel's Amusement Park
  August 25-26, 2012, Quassy Amusement Park
  November 2-3, 2012, Soulé Steam Fest & Rail Fest

This list is not complete, but includes only dates which are at present
considered firm.

Seems to me we should know or guess the following dates:

  about 15 August, 2012, DeBence Museum Crank Organ Rally
  about 10 to 17 July, 2012, MBSI Mid-West Band Organ Rally
  July 11-15, 2012, AMICA Convention, Pittsburg, PA
  August 29-Sept 2, 2012, MBSI Convention, Redwood City, CA

Would others help us out by posting their dates?  If the dates are
still tentative, say so, of course.
