Rehearsals for the 2012 concert season are scheduled to begin on May 23 and will continue every Wednesday through late August. We rehearse in the Fellowship Hall at the Harbor United Methodist Church www.humcscituate.org from 7:30 to 9:30. The band is comprised of loyal musicians from young teens to early eighties, high school students to seasoned professionals (who donate their services) and every level in between.

 The Satuit Band will perform twelve concerts this summer at several locations including Scituate Harbor, Rockland Public Library, Oak Point in Middleboro, Hingham Harbor Bandstand, and the Bernie King DCR Pavillion in Hull . As always we will play in Hingham's annual Independence Day parade and close our season with a concert at the Hanover Bandstand on Labor Day. 

Claire Perkins played clarinet, soprano,alto,tenor and bari sax, french horn and euphonium. She shared her talent with several bands throughout New England. Claire was a teacher, an avid golfer and mother of four. She joined the Satuit Band in 1978 and for the next 25 seasons was a staunch member of the band serving as principal clarinet and librarian until her untimely passing on February 22, 2004. Because Claire was adamant that the Satuit Band resume the practise of providing scholarships to college students her family graciously requested that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the Satuit Band Scholarship Fund. For the next five seasons scholarships were given in Claire's name from that fund which has been augmented by generous donations from our audiences. In the winter of 2008 the board voted to continue giving scholarships in her memory. The Satuit Band/Claire Perkins Memorial Scholarships will be awarded to  those college students who demonstrate a high standard of participation in band activities. To date 22 scholarships have been given in Claire's memory.
