The B. Love Strutters N.Y.B. was established in 2003 by a group of friends who just
wanted to have some fun on New Years Day. A bunch of us had marched in the Fancy
Division for a few years and had a great time. The B. Love Strutters N.Y.B. is a brigade of
the 1st place Murray Comic Club.

B. LOVE STRUTTERS NYB - WILDWOOD DAYS, 2007 MUMMERS PARADE
Dedicated in the memory of Mr. Richard DeGrouchy
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!
Another great year! We are Still in the winners circle with a 9th out of approximately 40 finish. The
weather again was perfect, kids were great and I can’t say enough…what a great day!
The B. Love Strutters is an exceptional mummers club. Our club consists of many individuals but
what makes our membership unique and special is the common denominator - we are ALL –
FRIENDS AND FAMILY. What makes this day great every year is that we know how to have fun! It
was a fun day!
The B. Love Strutters made mummers history this year and everyone on 2 Street has been talking
about it. This was the first time the Wildwood Tram Car was in the Philadelphia Mummers parade.
I want to thank Patrick Rosenello for lending us his Tram Car along with the best Tram Car driver in
the world, GIGI. Thanks to Kevin, Rick, John, Steve and all guys at the Wildwood Convention
Center for your support and help with this project. Thanks to the Wildwood Beach Patrol for lending
us the cans.
However I hope you guys at WWBP learned from the BLBP. We had the best looking lifeguards on
Broad street – Chip, Swede, Jimmy E, Jimmy Dunn, Paul Lott. Along with the hottest “Baywatch”
chicks ever: Dave Carhart, Big Guy and Bernie. You guys were studs and the Baywatch
guys………hot!
Thanks the Michelle Dunn for making the Baywatch suits and Jimmy for your support as well.
Michelle, you did a great job and we appreciate it.
Thanks to the “waves” – John, Billy and Pete Loftus, Frank White, Brian Brown, Dennis Bartley and
Mike Sanford. You did a great job.
The “Shoebees” – Mick, Debbie, Joey. Kylie, Carolyne
The “Towells”; Scott and Lisa, Matt Milar, Paula, Steph, Connnell, Quinn, and Maura White, Bridget
Carhart, Deborah Crabtree and Mike, Cindy, Larry Lubas, Pat Degrouchy, Weekender, Danny
Leone, Kelly and Laura Mervine, Theresa and Vince, Chrissy, Eloise, Francine the Pizza girl, Pam
Hershman, Andrew Urban and Patrick Gilmore, Isaac Loftus,
To Artie and Dominic, Mike Yuengling, Mike and Deborah, hope you had a good time your first
year.

Thanks to Gary Milar for the use of your truck to pull the float, and again thanks to Steve Cabano
for driving the banner car.
Thanks Eloise for the music again, Thanks to Paula and Michelle for the make up and Fran Seifert
for help on the street.
Thanks to Larry and Michael Lubas for your help at my house with costumes.

The garage:
Most don’t get to see the process from start to finish of putting the props and floats on the street.
There is a group of guys in the garage who have been involved since 1/2/06 and they deserve the
biggest thanks: Billy DeGrouchy, Joey Irgantua, Danny, Little Bobby and his buddies, Paul Lott for
help in the garage and all your help with the treasury and ordering the supplies – Thanks Paul. To
the Murray guys who treat us like family – Bobby Hershman – you are the man, thanks Bobby for
everything. You are always a great help. Jinks, Jerry, Dennis, and Nickey Peligrino – thanks guys
not only for the help but for the laughs. I want to thank Bobby Trama who helped me build the
lifeguard stand. Bobby got 1st place captain and 1st place club – Congratulations Bobby on a job
well done.
Thanks to Paul and Amanda and Pam for getting the pictures on the website. Check them out, they
