The idea of putting together a Junkanoo group to participate in the annual DC Carnival has been floating around for sometime. However, it was not until the summer of 2004 that all the various ideas started coming together. In September of 2004, at an annual Embassy function for Bahamian students and working professionals in the DC Metro area, the Bahamas Junkanoo Association of Metro D.C. was formed.      

Since then the association continues to grow with connections to similar
organizations in Atlanta, Delaware, and Philadelphia. Initially the main goal of BJAMDC was to participate solely in the annual DC Carnival parade on Georgia Ave. However, that idea has expanded to promoting a broader aspect of Bahamian Culture.
