Georgia Tech's Yellow Jacket Marching Band will play for a Cobb County crowd Monday on the last evening of the annual Cobb-Marietta Marching Band Exhibition.

Nine bands from public and private high schools in Cobb will also perform at the event, which begins at 7 p.m. at the McEachern High School stadium in Powder Springs. Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for students; children 4 and under get in free.

On Monday, the first day of the event, the Jacksonville State University Southerners played the closing notes after nine county high school bands performed.
