Please remember that the instrument pick up night is tonight (Wednesday, 11/13) at 6:30 in the WCS theater.
If you cannot attend and have not yet signed a rental contract:
Please contact Ellis Music Company ASAP and make alternate arrangements. (Lessons start tomorrow.)
If you reserved a rental through my sign up form but have not signed a contract yet:
You should attend tonight. Upon arrival, you will get a number (deli counter style). Ellis Music representatives will run a quick meeting and review the details of the rental contract with all of you. They will then call you up according to the number you received upon arrival. You will then sign your contract and be assigned an instrument to bring home.
Children do not need to attend this evening. If you have to bring them, please be sure they have something quiet and calm to do while you are waiting.
If you completed your rental contract online through the Ellis Music website:
You should have received a receipt from Ellis by now. You can arrive at 6:30 and get your instrument right away. You are welcome to sit through the meeting if you would like, but it is optional for you.
Please be sure to purchase the book, Tradition of Excellence Book 1, and any other needed supplies such as reeds for clarinets and saxophones.
If you cannot attend tonight, the representatives will leave your instrument with me. I will give it to your child at their lesson.
If you secured an instrument in another way:
You do not need to attend tonight. If you need reeds for your clarinet or saxophone, and/or the book, Tradition of Excellence Book 1, you can stop in and purchase these from the table in the back of the theater.
When do we start? What is our schedule?
Lessons are scheduled during the school day on Thursdays and Fridays and will begin tomorrow. Your child will attend one lesson per week, always on the same day, but the assigned time will rotate. The time rotates in order to avoid missing the same part of the other classes each week. Please check the schedule here. If you see an error, please let me know via email asap. (kthompson@cvsdvt.org)
If you have questions, I will be available tonight and am also easily reached via email.
Sincerely,
Kim Thompson
