Twirlers - First Place finish at WTAC competition

Congratulations to our FIRST PLACE twirlers!

These ladies have worked extra hard since being selected in May of last year. They had summer rehearsals, early mornings, and after school rehearsals to prepare for contests. These ladies swept the competition and finished as the TOP OVERALL MIDDLE SCHOOL twirling line. We are so very proud of their hard work and dedication!

Congratulations to these ladies!!!
