Miami drums

Saturday March 31, 2007 @ 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm. This drum circle is every week at the same place.
At the Fern Forest Nature Park (in the picnic area) 201 Lyons Road South Coconut Creek, Florida. Here’s a little map to get there!
(West side of Lyons Road just south of Atlantic Blvd.)

The park closes at 6pm. We will be druming about 1 1/2 hours and will be using the pavilion on the right side just before the first parking lot. Walk to the pavilion. Listen for the drums.

Fern Forest is a small park and parking is limited so car pooling would be a good thing to do.

Thanks to the broward drum Yahoo! Group for the information!

Once again, the Coconut Groove drum circle would be held at Peacock Park @ 4 PM, [ 1600 hours Zulu time if you like it better] this Sunday afternoon.
There are only a few benches at the park, so bring your own seating, and your happy hands this Sunday for a music feast

Sunday March 25 the Sidewalk Drum Circle moves to Peacock (around the
corner & down towards the water), and starts @4PM, not 2PM. The Coconut
Grove Business Improvement committee is working out an arrangment with
the city for permits and permissions. Next week we’ll be back on the
street.

This recording was produced by the Miami drums Yahoo! group @ Peacock park January 21 st, 2007.
