Poster Tips:

Prints made with ink jet printers will run if rained upon. Use laser printers or copiers for outdoors.

Some places for posting are: Music stores, Libraries, Laundromats, Hanafords, City Market, Elley-Long center, Bookstores, Outdoor boards around downtown Burlington.

It is polite to ask permission of an establishment before posting. Some will put it up for you.

Remember to bring your own pushpins, as well as tape and perhaps a staple gun. Different situations warrant different methods.


Compensation


Each year the Burlington Concert Band receives a small amount of money from the City of Burlington. With this we pay the Liability Insurance that Parks & Rec requires; we pay our conductor (not nearly what he is worth!); purchase incidentals such as music folders, mailing supplies, etc.; pay for advertising and upkeep of equipment; and an amount, which varies every year, is divided up amongst the musicians that played with us faithfully over the summer.

The formula used to determine who is eligible is essentially as follows:

You must attend a minimum of two rehearsals and three concerts, and the total of all attended events (rehearsals and concerts) must be at least ten (generally we have between 20 - 22 "events" each season). Attendance counts for 60% of the total and Seniority (which maxes out at ten years) counts for 40%.
