Annual membership dues are $140 for returning band members and $150 for new members
(this includes a one-time folder deposit fee of $10). Checks are payable to Ann Arbor Concert Band. Please plan on paying your dues by the end of September (or upon joining). The folder deposit is good each year you are a member. The deposit is refunded when you leave the band.
Members can pay their dues on-line. Click here, and scroll to the bottom on the webpage.
While members should attend all rehearsals, AACB understands that some rehearsals may be missed. Members are
encouraged not to miss more than one rehearsal between concerts. If members will not be attending the concert, members are asked not to attend
the final two rehearsals prior to the concert.
All absences, planned or not, should be discussed with their section leader or the band director.
For concerts, proper concert attire is required:
