We're up already? Suspense mounts as Mr. Servant announces Feehan’s turn to perform. It’s been a long day. Arriving at 6:00 A.M. Brenda Loiselle and husband, Glenn, supervised last minute preparations for hosting the visitors. Yet Another Feehan First First the walk-a-thon, now this-can our school handle all of these new challeng- ing activities? On March 19, 1983, Feehan held its very first majorette competition. Iridescently colored with balloons, streamers and encouraging slogans, the gymnasium was quickly filled to the rim with anxious competitors and psyched up fans. From Falmouth to Canton, New Bed- ford to Dennis-Yarmouth, each team ner- vously assembled in their designated seats to await their twirling debuts. With Feehan’s most famous orator, Mr. Christ- opher Servant, introducing each act, the majorettes tossed and twirled to their fa- vorite tunes before a scrutinizing panel of judges. Finally, came the anticipated arrival of our own Feehan majorettes. Re- sembling the famous 50's greasers and greasettes, the majorettes with ponytails 8 Majorettes' Competition and black jackets, rocked and bopped their batons before an exuberant audi- ence full of fans. With the watchful eye of moderator Mrs. Brenda Loiselle upon her girls, the majorettes amazed the audience with a breathtaking series of catches and spins. After each twirling team concluded its rigorous routine, the highlight of the after- noon put everyone on the edges of their seats: the presentation of trophies. Top- ping the list for Division | was Dennis- Yarmouth and for Division II the winner was Canton High. But, don’t think that Feehan walked away empty-handed. Captain Elizabeth Latta won one of the most coveted awards, Best Captain. As each team vacated the gym with their trophies held high, all spectators and competitors left knowing that this day would be remembered as another suc- cessful Feehan first. Mascot Skippy accompanies Sister Jessica to root for their favorite team, Feehan, of course!
