MARTIN COUNTY — The Stuart Community Concert Band is celebrating its centennial this season. Maybe. “Last report, I think this is our 100th year,” director Christopher Kalwa said. “There was a book (at the Stuart Heritage Museum) that had a picture of us 1914, 1915. We’ve been around forever.” Centennial or not, the band will have its last 2014 performance on Saturday, Dec. 13, at the Blake Library, 2351 S.E. Monterey Road, Stuart. There’re two concert times: 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The shows are free. Kalwa said the community band attracts performers with a wide range of skill from a wide area. About 15 hail from Palm City. “We have 45 regulars,” Kalwa said. “Forty, 45, give or take a couple. Some Northern people come down and play with us when they can.”
