State of The Mummers Life 2013

Ok everybody now that 2013 is well underway this would be a great time to address all of our hopes and expectations for this year. Mummers Life was started up in October 2012 and is still gaining more and more fans every day! It appears to be the fastest growing Philadelphia Mummers related community page on Facebook. 2013 will be a huge year for Mummers Life, and hopefully an even bigger year for the city. The parade itself this year seemed to be successful despite the chilly weather. We were very glad to see such a good turn out, full bleachers, and a lively crowd surrounding city hall and the judges stands. 2013 had already kicked off to an exciting start for us and we are beyond excited for what lies ahead. Here's a listing of what we have to look forward to:

-We have begun teaming up with the Mummers vs Cancer Team to help with promoting their events and aiding in fundraising attempts. The goal this year is $10,000+

-Join us on April 27th at Sugar House Casino for the Mummers vs Cancer annual benefit. This event is ages 21+ and for only $25 you will have a great night of fun, food, and music with fellow mummers and great people. There will also be an auction for numerous donated items, and also Mummers Life merchandise for sale!

-Mummers Life will be releasing new merchandise within the next few months that will be available for purchase via our eBay store. New items include: t-shirts, bracelets, and stickers. Proceeds from each purchase will go to Save the Mummers/Mummers Museum.

Stay tuned for more, thanks for reading!! Follow us on Twitter, add us on Facebook!!!
