Thousands of vinyl records, CDs, import only releases, t-shirts, posters, and other collectibles will be on display with the return of the 14th annual 88.1 Record Show on Saturday, Feb. 11.
The show will continue from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Salem High School Cafeteria, and proceeds will benefit the nationally recognized student radio station operated by the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools.
The show will feature special giveaways and door prizes in addition to a wide variety of vendors. 88.1 The Park expects to build on the success of the show last year which had a record attendance of more than 450 people. Much of the success of the show can be tied to the resurgence of interest in vinyl records, organizers said.
“We strive to make the record show an experience for music fans of all ages to enjoy. No matter how long you’ve been collecting vinyl, you can support your local radio station while finding the perfect item to add to your collection.” said Mady Bajorek, program director for 88.1 The Park.
Admission to the 88.1 The Park record show, during normal show hours, is $3. Collectors looking to get an early start to their shopping can gain early admission between 9 and 10 a.m. for $10. Students at Canton, Plymouth and Salem High Schools will receive free admission with a student identification.
All of the proceeds will benefit 88.1 The Park, and will help the station to continue serving the community with unique programming and broadcast training for students. The record show is one of the main fundraisers for the station each year. Interested dealers can contact 88.1 The Park Station Manager Bill Keith, at (734) 416-7732 or by email at bill.keith@pccsk12.com. Eight-foot tables can be reserved for $35 each.
Salem High School is located at 46181 Joy Road in Canton Michigan (corner of Joy and Canton Center). The Salem High School Cafeteria is located on the first floor, just inside the main entrance to the school.
88.1 The Park is committed to investing in the lives of students and serving the Plymouth-Canton Community. The station is owned and operated by the Plymouth- Canton Community Schools. More information is available at www.881ThePark.com.
