1960-61 Devine High School Majorettes From the 1961 yearbook: Darlene Davis, Barbara Driscoll, Molly Griffin, Rosa Tellez, Peggy Duke, Nola Alexander (Drum Major), with Mascot Vicki Wallace in front.
For over 70 years Majorettes and Twirlers graced the sidelines of Devine football games, performed at pep rallies at Devine High School and Devine Junior High, and marched in local and area parades with the Warhorse & Colt Bands. They boosted school spirit and added sparkle and glamour with their twirling routines! From at least 1944 through the last twirler in 2017, Devine had the honor of having many very talented young ladies become leaders in their schools. These girls worked hard to prepare for tryouts, paid for their own batons, lessons, camps, and usually uniforms too. A lot of time and effort went into practicing for their performances, and they were an integral part of many school events. They also competed in UIL contests, even at the State level, and won many awards.
The Devine Little League will be having their annual meeting to close out last season as we prepare for the upcoming season and will be open to the general public. We encourage anyone interested in helping us with the new season to join our board.
