Why Preserve Baton Twirling History?
Every year, vintage baton twirling costumes, majorette uniforms, photographs, trophies and scrapbooks are discarded during moves, estate settlements and downsizing efforts.
Once these items are lost, the stories behind them are often lost as well.
The Vintage Twirler works to document and preserve the people, organizations, traditions and achievements that shaped baton twirling across generations. From local majorette lines to collegiate feature twirlers and world champions, every collection helps tell a larger story.

Hero Image Details: Photo by Masao Masuda, Circa 1940s. This photograph depicts a group of girls who did baton twirling in one of the Japanese American prison camps. Their coach stands to their left. People in these camps created social, cultural, and sports clubs to try and recreate a normal life after they’d been forcibly relocated. They did these recreational activities to pass the time and enjoy themselves.
