Rehearsals will be held on Monday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the Millswood Middle School Band Room, 233 North Mills Avenue, Lodi, California, commencing on January 25, 2027.

In order to be a member of the Band, you must enrolled as a student at San Joaquin Delta College. 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 Deltaโ€™s website. It is extremely helpful and very much appreciated if you apply and/or register prior to the first rehearsal, because that minimizes the amount of time spent dealing with administrative/clerical matters and allows us to devote the bulk of our time together 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 at a cost of $26.00, register for Music 028 (Course No. 30106). If you prefer to audit the course and not receive college credit, register for Music 9028 (Course No. 30107). There is no cost to audit the course. Members of both the Lodi Community Band and Stockton Concert Band should enroll in Music 9002 (Course No. 30108) for Lodi Community Band.

If you need assistance navigating the Delta College website, there is help available! In the lower right corner of the website, click on the bright yellow icon to chat online with a Delta College representative who can assist you with the application and/or registration process weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Or visit the Admissions and Records Office in the DeRicco Student Service Center Building, Room 132, weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

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.
