JAZZ DISTRICT NIGHT - TUESDAY FEB 21 2017
Dear Music Council members: I think 10-12 people max would be a good amount to make the district jazz night run smoothly. Thanks for your help and I will order pizza for 5:15 PM! Below is a list of everything I think that needs to be covered, let's discuss it on Monday so that I can get your feedback. Thanks!
-Instruments from band room need to be loaded into theatre (hopefully this will be done in the afternoon by one of my band classes, but it's much appreciated if you can double check this has all been done at 3:10pm)
-Please create and place signs in theatre for seating for each of the schools. I don't know exact numbers for each school, let's say 40 seats per school should be good! Also please put school signs up for their assigned storage rooms (see list below).
-3-4 people need to work in the box office taking $5 cash payments, counting guests and giving stamps. Please track this all on paper so that we can match it with what the theatre usher counts as they let guests into the theatre
-One person making sure the zone door into the school lobby is kept closed at all times
-5 people on the main floor helping direct the different schools to their rooms for storing their cases and jackets and stuff
-once the concert begins at 7pm box office people please count up the original float and then separate out the money that was brought in and put into a separate envelope. Please hold onto all of this and give to Mr. Wilson at the end of the night.
-much appreciated if three or four music council members remain until after the concert is done for tasks such as taking down signs from the various rooms and general cleanup.
District Jazz Night - SENIOR JAZZ
NOTES:
-arrive between 6-6:30pm. Concert begins at 7pm and ends approximately 9pm.

BELOW ARE SAMPLE MUSIC COUNCIL STRUCTURES FROM OTHER SCHOOLS - NOT OURS!! JUST SOMETHING TO USE AS A LAUNCHING PAD FOR IDEAS
Music Council Overview
The Music Council is a student elected group who develop and implement new initiatives for the Music Department each year. Members of the Music Council also make important decisions in conjunction with MPAC regarding school trips and fund raising strategies. Executive Council Members plan our concerts and assist the school staff in organizational roles throughout the year. Elections for Music Council members take place each year before the Spring Concert.
