Kimball’s show choirs show up and show out at Old West Choir Fest The Kimball Public Schools’ show choirs rocked, rolled and even time warped their way through the annual Old West Choir Fest in Scottsbluff this weekend. Jacob Hoffman, who directs the elementary, jr. high and high school choirs, said he was proud of how each group performed on Saturday. VELOCITY (ELEMENTARY) In the festival’s elementary division, each choir was given an award to spotlight something it did well. Kimball’s group, Velocity, was given the Braveheart award for stepping outside of its comfort zone and taking risks. Hoffman guessed the judges mainly awarded them this award for their physical performance. “ From what I usual ly see from other elementary (schools) and what ours does, we have a little more choreopgraphy, our dancing is a little bit more complex,” he said. Velocity consisted of 4th-6th graders.
