Live Streaming of Activities
Happy New Year! And with the turn of the calendar to 2019 we are excited to announce that school events in the Knoxville High School Gym and KPAC will now be live streamed on the NFHS Network!
For a fee, customers can watch games in our gym on the NFHS Network live stream. In previous years, many schools used the High School Cube to live stream events for free, however the NFHS acquired the Cube several months ago. A couple of advantages of the NFHS Network is their camera is completely automated (no camera operator is needed) and home boys play-off games/events can be live streamed as well (the IHSAA which governs boys sports in Iowa is a partner with the NFHS Network, the IGHSAU which governs girls sports in Iowa is not).
Also, events we stream in KPAC (concerts, etc.) will be streamed for free (that's what we have been told by the NFHS Network). So, if you are wanting to watch basketball/wrestling/volleyball contests in our high school gym - you will need a subscription/account. If you have grandparents/siblings/other family/friends in another part of the country - here is a way for them to watch our events live!
