Why You Should Consider Earlier Instrument Drives This Year

28 Feb

Quick Tip!

Well, really a Public Service Announcement.

Due to delays in shipping over the past year, instrument manufacturers and music stores are having more and more trouble providing the needed inventory of instruments. Consider having your Instrument Drives or New Parent Orientation Meetings meetings earlier than usual so your students have the best chance of getting instruments by Day One!

It may seem early to start planning for next year, but in August you’ll be glad you did it.

Special thanks to N-Tune Music & Sound, a local music store with 4 locations in Texas, for providing this Quick Tip – Midland, Odessa, Abilene & Aledo.  N-Tune Music & Sound is a business partner for BandDirectorsTalkShop.com and supports music education and band directors in many ways. Their dedication to student musicians and music educators is unmatched, as are their instrument repair quality and customer service.
