Check your school's listing on that schedule to
see that your email link and your school's website is correct.
Let me know of any mistakes or bad links. Also e-mail me
any questions you have.
If you have a
major conflict with the performance time/location you
have been assigned, contact another director via e-mail and
trade times. Let me know if a trade takes place so I
can adjust the posted schedule.

attn. J. Warrick
New
Trier High School
385
Winnetka Ave.
Winnetka, IL 60093
Please do NOT have checks sent to the generic New Trier
address without "att. J. Warrick" or NTJAZZ FEST
on the envelope someplace. Otherwise fees not so marked
have been lost in the Business Office.
===================
I will work on the staffing and details for
the Jazz Director's Big Fat Band as soon as
possible.
===================
Be advised that, as in the past, FINAL
TOTALS FOR EVENING CONCERT TICKET NUMBERS WILL BE EXPECTED
FROM YOU BY OCTOBER 15. You will soon
receive an email explaining more. Start now working on
exact numbers.
We have a Director's Correspondence
Page that shows any amounts you owe, the number
of tickets you have pre-ordered, and a LOT of important
details. It is updated everyday. Bookmark this page and
check it often. It is linked to the left side of the
jazzfest webpage.
NOTE: I have had to adjust the number of
reduced price tickets some of you ordered. As it says on
the application and in the "rules", only
performing students and chaperones can get a reduced price
ticket. All others must pay full price. Some of you will
see in your "ticket box" on the Director's
Correspondence Page the new numbers based on the
number of students you said on your entry form are in your
ensemble... plus no more than two chaperones. I have
assumed local groups might use as many as two
chaperones and groups probably staying in a motel need
four. If you need more chaperone tickets, let
me know. You also get a free director's ticket.
We will be using and making adjustments to
the ticket numbers on the Director's Correspondence
Page from now forward rather than your
original online application, which was probably done in
haste.
Again, final ticket totals (not
money) are due by OCT. 15,
so start working now on your totals. You can raise or
lower your ticket totals until that date, after Oct. 15,
you can only LOWER them. This allows me to know how many
tickets I can sell to Jazz Festival sponsors and
general public.
===================
NOTE TO BANDS STAYING IN A MOTEL ON
FRIDAY and/or SATURDAY... Let
me know that you will be doing that. We have a
Marriott hotel in Northbrook
that is only a 20 minute drive from New Trier that gives a
GREAT reduced rate to our participating schools and
professional bands.
Thanks,
Jim Warrick
