Eighteen area dancers will entertain attendees at this weekend’s Girls’ State Basketball Tournament. Several dancers from Pella, Knoxville, PCM, and Pleasantville high schools have been selected as part of the 2010 All-Iowa Honor Dance Team.  Members of the team are chosen based on ability, attitude, dedication and leadership qualities.  The 227 dancers from across the state will practice together for a few hours before performing to a medley of songs for the halftime show of the Class 3A Championship game.
