Band New Flash August 5, 2019

Welcome to this week's News Flash!  This is everything you need to know about Franklin Central Band right now.

When does practice end?

We've been getting this question many times in the past week since transitioning from summer practice times to the normal school schedule.  All practice dates and times are posted to the band calendar on fcbands.org But in case you need something to hang on the fridge, Click this image for full details of what to expect during a typical week.

We will be taking photos of seniors wearing the jacket for the Senior Banners that will hang on the fence at the stadium.  Cost is $40
Dates:

Email Communications and Text Notifications

We are excited to announce the transition from Charms and Remind to a single system called Cut Time.  This software product was created by the same company that supplies software to Drum Corp International and to most DCI teams.  To begin with, FC will be using Cut Time for the Calendar and for contact information - Addresses, phones and email accounts.  More features will be rolled out later in the year.

Do you want to receive emails and texts from the band with critical information about performances, schedule changes and emergency updates?  If you've given us your contact information in the past you are likely already setup in Cut Time.

If you think we already have your contact information, do this.
  •  Go to Cut Time Login page
  • Click "Forgot Your Password?"
  • Enter your Email Address
  • Do the robot test
  • Click "Reset my Password"
  • Check your email inbox for an email from info@cuttime.net (it may be in your junk or spam folder)
  • In the email, click "Create a New Cut Time Password"
  • All Done.
Please update your contact information and verify your cell phone number and update the Carrier name.  When you save the screen, it will require a birthday.  We do not need your birthday, just enter 01/01/1980.  The birthday tells Cut Time whether you're a child or an adult then adjusts what features the account has access to use. 

If you tried the previous step and did not receive an email or you're unsure whether you're setup, please send an email to cuttime@fcbands.org.
 Please include the following:
  • Your Name and the name of any other parent/guard
  • Email addresses
  • Cell phone number and carrier names
  • Student name(s)
  • Birthday and Grade level
  • Home address

If you have any questions, please contact  ​cuttime@fcbands.org.
