How does my family band account get updated? When will I receive statements? Who do I contact if I notice an error or need to update my information? Treasurers, Student Accounts, and committee chairs all play a role in keeping the financial gears turning for the band. While this year may be quite different from the norm, we’re here to help you understand your band account.
This year’s fees will be depend on what the band is allowed to do. Invoicing will be delayed until the board has enough information to make a decision regarding the adjustment. Fundraising options are likely to be an evolving situation throughout this school year, so make sure you’re on the Yahoo Group mailing list to stay informed.
You choose how to pay your band account:
· Make direct payments to the Treasurers by check or online via the band website.
· Accumulate account credit through time worked at PNC Arena, PARCC, NCFC, State Fair Parking or the Dewey’s Holiday Store. Each venue offers a specific rate per shift or per hour.
· Earn money for your account through sales fundraisers like GoPlaySave coupon books or Fruit & Nuts.
· Shop and earn with Lowe’s Food or Food Lion grocery gift cards and SCRIP.
Most families fulfill their financial obligation through a combination of these options. Some even pay their entire accounts through shift work and never write a check! For more information on specific fundraising and service credit opportunities, please visit our website HERE and HERE. We will also be offering more detailed information to families in our upcoming Digital Booster Fair.
Each month, committee chairs submit reports to Student Accounts, and we apply the appropriate credit to your account. You will receive a statement near the end of each month. If you notice an error, contact the committee chair for the appropriate fundraiser. They will research the situation and contact Student Accounts to make the appropriate adjustments.
To update your mailing or email address, phone, etc., email studentaccounts@athensdriveband.com. For questions related to specific payments or if you anticipate the need for financial assistance, email treasurer@athensdriveband.com.
We’re glad you’ve chosen to join the band family! If you have any questions, we’re here to help!
