ARDMORE, Okla. ― Ardmore students were treated to music they probably don't listen to normally Wednesday morning. The band Triple Play performed at Goddard Hall.

It is an effort to open young minds to the Arts― something organizers say is a must for success.

"It’s so important that children are well rounded, especially in the society we live in now. If they don't get a good background of arts and be appreciative, they cannot give back to the community they're raised in," sponsor Kipp Crutchfield said.

Triple Play also had a performance for the general public Tuesday night.
