Welcome
to the National Capital Chapter of Musical Box Society International
(MBSI)
We meet three times
per year in members homes and once
a year in a park or public facility. Members often bring guests and we
enjoy sharing and learning about mechanical musical instruments and in
socializing. Our "Pot Luck" meals are always memorable. Our newsletter,
