Do You Want to Play with the Band This Year?
New and returning players alike may download our
2008 Player Information Sheet,
fill it out and save it, then email it to the appropriate section leader using the link above.
As an alternative, you can print the form, fill it out, and mail it to your section leader,
whose address is in the document. In early May,
your section leader will get back to you about available playing opportunities, if there are any.
Rainout Policy
We never call off a concert ahead of time. You must come to the concert
site, and a decision will be made by the start of the concert about
whether to play or not. If you do not show up, and the concert is
canceled, you will not be paid. If you do not show up, and
the concert is held, you may not be asked back to play again.
Concert Dress
Concert dress for Lafayette Citizens Band concerts is the red T-shirt,
black pants or skirts, and black socks and shoes. If you need a T-shirt,
and did not order one when you sent in your schedule, email us at
band@lafayettecitizensband.org. The cost of
a shirt is $15.
Pay Periods
Paychecks are issued twice during the season, around July 15 and
September 15. Social security (FICA
and Medicare) taxes are withheld, but federal income tax is not.
Anything else?
Of course, you may ask any other questions as well. Players are paid,
with the wages varying depending on union membership. Rehearsals are
on normally on Wednesday evenings from 7-9 pm in Room 15, Elliott Hall of
Music, and most concerts are Thursday evenings at Riehle Plaza in downtown
Lafaytte. See the 2008 schedule for
starting times, which vary as the summer progresses.
