Registration is now open for the Spring 2025 semester.

Rehearsals will be held on Monday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the Millswood Middle School Bandroom, 233 North Mills Avenue, Lodi, California, commencing on January 13, 2025.

In order to be a member of the Lodi Community Band, you must register to be a San Joaquin Delta College student via the college’s online registration system. If you have not previously enrolled in a Delta College class or more than two semesters have elapsed since you last attended the college, you must reapply for admission following the step-by-step directions set forth on Delta Collegeโ€™s website.

Director Art Holton requests that all band members and prospective members register prior to the first rehearsal because that minimizes the amount of time that must be devoted to administrative/clerical matters. rather than rehearsing.

After you have completed the application process or, if you are a continuing student, you must enroll in one of two classes. If you would like to receive one unit of college credit, register for Music 028 (Course No. 30491). If you prefer to audit the course and not receive college credit, register for Music 128 (Course No. 30492). Note: Members of both the Lodi Community Band and Stockton Concert Band should register for Music 102 (Course No. 30493).

High school students, please note: You are invited to be a member of the Lodi Community Band and earn one unit of credit from Delta College, but you must be concurrently enrolled in your high schoolโ€™s band and obtain permission from both your principal and high school band director. The forms may be obtained from Mr. Holton at the first rehearsal of the semester.
