The South Central Iowa Band Association Middle School Honor Band is holding an event at Knoxville High School today.

Knoxville Middle School Instrumental Music Teacher Tim McBride says this event used to be performed in Des Moines, but the new facilities at Knoxville High School allow the event to now be more centrally located. McBride says three bands made up of 7th and 8th grade middle schoolers from around south-central Iowa will be performing.

The SCIBA Honor Band event runs from noon until 9pm at the Knoxville Performing Arts Center. The cost of the event is $3.
