BFMS Memberships Extended!
BFMS is extending all memberships while BFMS events have been cancelled due to COVID.
Help Support Our Callers and Musicians
BFMS is encouraging its members to donate to musicians and callers who had their BFMS sponsored gigs cancelled due to coronavirus. While we are no longer accepting donations through our website, CDSS has established a website for donations to musicians and callers. We encourage our members to take advantage of this website and help support our friends in the music and caller communities.
