Rather than add to the nay-saying in response to Mikey Mill's
enthusiastic proposal, I would suggest a slight change in focus
that could help to solve many of the very real issues that others
have brought up.

Instead of trying to get a recalcitrant commercial organization
like Cedar Fair to become responsive I'd suggest instead focusing
such an effort on one of the many publicly or charitable organization
owned organs where the owners might be much more receptive (indeed,
enthusiastic!) about such a donation, where lack of funds rather
than lack of will or interest is really the limiting factor in having
a great instrument on a carousel.

I'd also suggest that even some of us old-timers know about and like
Kickstarter -- there's no reason to limit fundraising to that venue,
but no reason to ignore it, either.  Stranger things have happened
than getting a younger, hipper crowd interested in mechanical organs.
The Steampunk community in particular could be a rich source of new
interest.

Cheers,
