It was a great celebration for two South Jersey organizations when Jacobs Music Company, the area’s exclusive representative for new and authentically restored Steinway & Sons, Boston, Essex and Yamaha pianos, presented $5,280 to the Children’s Regional Hospital at Cooper on Nov. 29.
It was the funds raised during “70 on 70”, planned as the grand opening of Jacobs Music Company’s new store in Cherry Hill at Barclay Farms Shopping Center.
Created to highlight music and the arts in southern New Jersey, the goal of “70 on 70” was for 70 performances to take place over the weekend of Oct., 5, 6 and 7 on Route 70.
There was so much enthusiasm for the event that 84 performances occurred.
The funds raised will be used to establish the new Jacobs Music Company Music Therapy Program at the Children’s Regional Hospital at Cooper.
