Instrument Rental Meeting Follow-Up - Grade 7 Families, order now!

If You Couldn't Attend, or Need A Reminder of the content, Here Is The Info You Need!

If you are looking to rent a flute, clarinet, trumpet or trombone, or a violin or viola, or an alto or tenor saxophone, we recommend you rent from Long & McQuade.  To do so, here is how.

1. Go to rentals.long-mcquade.com.
2. Select the instrument assigned to your student.
3. I heavily recommend you also get the maintenance plan of $20 for the year, because it guarantees that your student always​ has a working instrument.
4. Add a "care kit" for your instrument (we need it considering COVID), such as the one pictured above right.
5. Clarinets and Bass Clarinets - also add a orange box Rico 2.5 set of reeds, like the one pictured above.
6. Add your contact information.  Make sure you select the Calgary Chinook store, and select Ship To School.

That's all it takes!  Long & McQuade will deliver your instruments directly to the school.

If you want to purchase an instrument, that is best done in person.  If you already have access to an instrument (from a sibling, cousin, or friend), you obviously don't need to rent one!

But what about larger instruments?

If you are looking to rent a bass clarinet, tuba, baritone saxophone or cello, we recommend you rent from Notre Dame Collegiate.  Here is the steps to do so.

1. Go to the NDC Instrument Rental Form.
2. Fill out the form as best as you can.
3. Then got to https://www.long-mcquade.com.
4. Please order a "care kit" for your instrument (we need it considering COVID), such as the one pictured above right.
5. Bass Clarinets and Baritone Saxophones - also add a box of reeds (Grade 7s should get an orange box Rico 2.5 set of reeds like the one shown, other grades already know what they need).

Once you have sent in your NDC Instrument Rental Form, we will attach your order to your SchoolCashOnline, so that you can submit payment.  Once we've received payment, we can release the instrument(s) to your student.

NEW ANNOUNCEMENT - Students Begin Playing next week

I originally planned to have instruments in students' hands so that we could play beginning Monday.  While that work for Grades 8-12, Grade 7s unfortunately will need to wait for a bit to get theirs.  Grade 7s, order your instruments now so we can play sooner!​

If you have questions ...

You can ask questions directly in the NDC Music Discord in the #windyj-tickets channel, or you can also email Mr. Windsor, and he will answer as best as he can!
