Select high school students from various schools in the Lincoln Trail Conference are spending the day at Augustana College today, March 16, 2009, in preparation for a free Honors Band Concert at 6:30 p.m. at Centennial Hall, Rock Island.

Students are participating in workshops Monday morning and practice sessions this afternoon in preparation for the concert. Many band members from the schools are involved. Last year Aledo had 28 students in the Honor Band, the most of any of the attending bands.

The public is invited to this free performance.
