Hi there.... I am a huge mummers fan who lives in Easton, PA. Here you will find finishing orders from all the string band portion of the parades.

I realize I did not amass all this information. It was from a gentleman who had a page up with all the prize info, it was about 1997. If anyone knows who it was, I will give rightful credit.

If I left anything out, please e-mail me so I can fill in the info. Thanks for looking!

  • Thanks to Steve Volkert "Nomoremummy" for all his help filling in past captains of most of the non-association bands.

  • Thanks also to Russ Coleman "RoccoMole", owner of String Band Archives for his help filling in most of the information of correct themes/captains as well as the Captain's prize history. Thanks also to Russ for providing most of the points results from 1976-present.

  • Thanks also to Bill McDowell, long-time member of Fralinger (since 1954.) Bill helped me get most of the marching orders pre-1980.

  • Thanks as well to Chris Zadroga, a member of Fralinger since 1980. Chris helped me get the points results from 1956-1975.
