In 2020 Scituate was proclaimed a Purple Heart Community, honoring the service and sacrifice of those from our community who were awarded the Purple Heart while serving in our nation’s wars. As we did then, we would like to light up the coastline in honor of Purple Heart Day. We would like to thank The Inn at Scituate Harbor, the Rotary Club of Scituate, MA, and American Legion Post 144, Scituate for their generous donations towards the purchase of Purple Luminaria bags to be given out to the community. After August 1st, you may pick up bags at The Inn at Scituate Harbor for your display.
