Hi everybody! The Munroe Dairy Marching Milkman Band is performing in downtown Taunton MA on Saturday Oct 24th, starting at 4 PM. Except this time we are not marching, as such, maybe serenading is a better word, serenading costumed children as their parents escort them from one car-trunkload of candy to another. In other words, a Trunk or Treat, sponsored by the City of Taunton and taking place at the Taunton Green in downtown Taunton. We'll be playing from 4 until 6 PM - hope to see you there! https://www.taunton-ma.gov/Calendar.aspx?EID=5862&month=10&year=2026&day=24&calType=0 And yes, we are also being sponsored by Munroe Dairy, but don't expect any cows. The milkmen will be busy tucking them in for a good night's sleep. See you this weekend!

Hi everyone! One of our fondest events is coming up this Saturday. The residents of Mary Carpenter's Beach in Matunuck RI have invited us again to lead their Light Parade to mark the end of summer. This will be the 12th time the band has led the kids at sunset around the narrow, magical, colorfully-lit streets of this cottage community. Though technically a private event, if you happen to be down at the beach in Matunuck or getting a beer at the Ocean Mist or getting ice cream at The Vanilla Bean on Saturday at 7:00 PM or so and hear a marching band playing, come join us! https://www.carpentersbeachmeadowinc.com/ https://www.facebook.com/MarchingMilkmanBand See you there!
