Registration is now open for the San Joaquin Delta College 2021 spring semester. Rehearsals are held on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in Holt 113 on the San Joaquin Delta College campus, 5151 Pacific Avenue, Stockton, California.

In order to be a member of the Stockton Concert Band, you must register to be a 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’s website.

Director Arthur Holton III requests that all band members and prospective members register now. Not only will registration demonstrate to the Delta College Administration that the Stockton Concert Band is eager and ready to get rehearsals underway as soon as it is safe to do so, 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 that must be devoted to administrative/clerical matters.

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. 31046). If you prefer to audit the course and not receive college credit, register for Music 128 (Course No. 31049). If you are also a member or prospective member of the Lodi Community Band, you must register for Music 102 (Course No. 31057).

High school students, please note: You are invited to be a member of the Stockton Concert Band and earn one unit of credit from Delta College, but you must be concurrently enrolled in your high school’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.

Additionally, after you have registered, please send an email informing Mr. Holton at arthur.holton at deltacollege dot edu. You will be added to his email distribution list and provided updates on the band’s status. Do not proceed to the band room on the first night of the semester because we have not yet received clearance to begin gathering and rehearsing. Mr. Holton will advise as soon as it is safe for us to begin rehearsals.

Questions? Feel free to drop an email to info at stocktonconcertband dot com!

And until we can be together in person, please:

  • Wear a mask!
  • Socially distance!
  • Stay safe!

Join us!

Mr. Holton will provide you with the required forms at the first rehearsal. It is your responsibility to obtain those individuals’ signatures and return the completed forms to Mr. Holton in a timely manner.
