Festival Policies Reminders
As positions change within your school district and new teachers are hired, inform them of WCMEA and the importance of membership. Students cannot participate in a festival unless their director is an active member.

1. A student selected for a festival MUST participate in the ENTIRE festival. He/she is not permitted to leave the festival for sports, dance, doctor appt., etc. and return later. Students are not permitted to go out for lunch. Pleae make sure our students are aware of this policy. If he/she (or the parents) cannot abide by it, select a replacement. The president should be consulted if this issue arises on sight.

2. Directors should attend the evening concert and remain after the concert until all students have been claimed. If for some reason you cannot the concert, designate another director to oversee your students. You (or WCMEA) could be held liable if something would happen to a student that is "left."

Professional Recording
Have you entertained the notion of hiring a professional recording company to come in and record your next concert? Before you look in the Yellow Pages, consider our WCMEA members Dwight Brown and Jim Julian. They are both excellent and there is no charge to have them record for you. Email them for more details. Here is their contact information:

Dwight Brown: dbmusicman@comcast.net, or www.goodsoundstudio.com
Jim Julian: jwjul@aol.com
