Scituate Hunters
Scituate, Rhode Island
Fife & Drum Corps
The Scituate Hunters were formed in October 2013 by Director JoAnna Ferraris. The original Scituate Hunters was an independent town milita chartered 12/5/1774. The charter was awarded to Captain Joseph Kimball. Captain Kimball and his men were called upon to protect and serve during the Revolutionary War. The current day Hunters are a Fife & Drum Corps dedicated to preserving the ancient art of fifing and drumming.
We Need You!!!
Recruitment
The Scituate Hunters are currently recruiting! 
Have you always wanted to play in a marching band? Then this might be for you. Come play a fife or drum and learn the style of ancient fifing and drumming. The Hunters participate in parades, civic events, and fife & drum musters in RI, CT, and MA. You don't know how to play an instrument or read music? That's ok! NO MUSICAL EXPERIENCE is required. Musical and marching instruction is provided.
You don't want to play an instrument or dedicate that much time to a hobby? That's okay too! There are several positions that are less of a time commitment and do not require any musical knowledge. Colorguard and camp followers do not play instruments, but are still an integral part of the unit. The unit is family friendly and there is something for everyone! Rehearsals are held every Tuesday at the Scituate Middle School. Please contact us at joanna@scituatehunters.com for more information.
