e-mail
me on the
Contact
page with the information ( name, address, website URL and email address if possible). I will add them to the listing.
Florida
Broward County Mummers (900 SW 54th Ave, Margate, Fl)
James P. (Jimmy) O'Neill and Jack Handley (Jack has recently left the
BCM), started the Broward County Mummers in February 1977. The
Band is a non-profit organization that plays about 50 performances a
year.
The Broward County Mummers Band wishes to keep the tradition of Mumming
alive, but they need new members. To contact the Band for either
membership or performances, call Jack
