The Maine Pops Concert Band’s Harbor Brass Quinter will perform at the start of the 11th Annual “Kevin on the Roof” STRIVE fundraiser on Tuesday, September 8 from 4:30 to 5 p.m. at Patriot Subaru in Saco, ME. The performance kicks off an effort by STRIVE U Program Director Kevin Fitzpatrick to remain atop the auto dealership’s roof from September 8 until donations reach $90,000 to support all STRIVE programs.

STRIVE, which stands for Socialization, Transition, Reflection, Innovation, Vocation and Education, is a non-profit organization based in South Portland that assists tweens, teens and young adults with intellectual disabilities.

Harbor Brass members Larry Langmore (trumpet), Nate Caron (trumpet), Jim McDonough (trombone), Alison McCarty (French horn) and Tom Mackie (tuba) plan a series of “rooftop melodies” to support Kevin’s initial fundraising efforts, while also playing some popular tunes performed at numerous summer venues.
