Thank You for a Great Year!

December 28, 2016 By Keith Leave a Comment

All of us at Press Play would like to wish our families, friends, partners and clients a very Happy Holiday season!!  Thanks for a great year!

We, especially, want to thank all of our current, and past clients, for an amazing 2016!  We truly enjoyed helping you celebrate your wonderful events; whether it was your son or daughter’s Mitzvah, your wedding day, corporate holiday parties, Sweet 16s or many other special events.  Thanks again for choosing us!

We want to send a big shout out to our vendor friends and partners who have helped us create spectacular experiences for all of our clients.  They continue to go above and beyond and we appreciate all of the support they have provided us.  We would highly recommend any and all of these wonderful and passionate folks!  Thank you all!

Photographers: Elin Photography & Ken Berman Photography

Photo Booth Providers: (Scott & Sean) Boston Photo Booth Rentals, (Juliette & Ali) Snapshot Entertainment, (Marc) Memories in an Instant

Event Planners: (Deb & Jen) S and H Events; (Rachel) Rachel G Events; (Wendy) Radius Events; and (Michelle) MH Productions

Venues: (Ashley) Needham Sheraton

Press Play had the pleasure of DJing many events/fundraisers, for some of Boston’s local organizations; including The Jimmy Fund, The Sean D Biggs Memorial Foundation, A Kid’s Brain Tumor Cure Foundation, and The Wayside Youth & Family Support Network.  It was an honor being a small part of these important events.

Special Thank You’s to the town of Needham, MA, our home base, the Needham Business Association, Temple Beth Shalom and all of the elementary schools and businesses for welcoming us and choosing us to help entertain our local community.  We are big proponents of “local supporting local” and could not have asked for a better community to be a part of!

And, of course, I cannot thank my outstanding team of SuperStar DJs enough for their amazing effort, dedication and passion for providing the soundtracks for all of these great events.  Alan, Russ, Rob, Ekko, Evan, and, especially, my right-hand man Jay, I could not do this without you.  You guys are the best!

Finally, I want to share with you a recent article from the Boston Globe, about a recent Bat Mitzvah.  Jay, Evan and I had the privilege of DJing this Bat Mitzvah for a family friend.  With all of the craziness of 2016, from the election to the global terror attacks and more, it was great to end 2016 with this amazing story of strength, perseverance, inclusion, family and community support.  We were extremely proud of Zoe and her entire family.

Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy New Year!  We hope to see you, and meet you, in 2017 and beyond!

-Keith

Press Play Walking in the 2016 Jimmy Fund Walk!

June 17, 2016 By Keith Leave a Comment

On Sunday, September 25, Press Play will lace up their sneakers, for the 8th time, to walk along the famed Boston Marathon® route in the 2016 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk presented by Hyundai! I’ve committed to raise $3000 this year. I’ve set this goal because I know the money raised by the Jimmy Fund Walk goes directly to innovative cancer research and exceptional patient care Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

I continue to walk in support of close family and friends who are battling and BEATING this terrible disease. As many may know, my mother has been battling breast cancer for the last 4 years and is just beginning another radiation treatment this week. She has a very rare form of breast cancer, that keeps re-occurring even after several surgeries and treatments. All along, she has been fighting like a champion and is always more concerned about us than herself. I could not be more proud of her! My sister in law has also been battling brain cancer and radiation induced tumors for most of her life. Just last month, she had a brain tumor removed and, fortunately, it was not cancerous and she has recovered tremendously. Needless to say, these two strong, incredible ladies are my heroes and I am certainly proud to have them as family.

Will you please make a gift of $20 or more to support my Walk and the incredible work being done at Dana-Farber?

The funds raised by the Jimmy Fund Walk help to:
*Enable Institute leaders to apply monies rapidly when promising new research opportunities arise

*Advance Dana-Farber’s signature total patient care philosophy by enhancing the programs and initiatives that serve patients and their families, such as the Zakim Center for Integrative Therapies and the Red Sox Spring Training Trip for teenagers in treatment

*Allow Dana-Farber to attract, develop, and retain the brightest minds who will lead the next generation of cancer care and research

It’s easy to have an impact on this important and universal cause. You can:
– Make a gift online: give directly through my fundraising page: [link below]. You can also visit JimmyFundWalk.org and click “Give Now”. Then, search for my name and follow the instructions on my fundraising page to make a gift to support my walk online.

– Send in a check: Write a check payable to “Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk” with my name in the memo line and send it directly to the Jimmy Fund Walk lockbox:
Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk
P.O. Box 3595
Boston, MA 02241-3595

– I would also be grateful if you would check with your employer’s human resources department to find out if your organization will match your gift and double the impact!

Cancer touches all of us. I am doing my part to help conquer this disease and with your help, we can move closer to the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer.

Thank you in advance for your generosity! I appreciate your support.
