Uajo «tte$ P tjpww tt P fUdtUm Extra practices, a week of camp, sore legs, and peppy performances all go into being an FCHS major- ette. Under the direction of Head Ma- jorette Jane DeCourcy and Amy Alexander assistant, the 24 girls brought home a 1st place trophy from the Triton Central Majorette Contest. Performing at parades, football and basketball games, concerts, pep sessions, and con- tests made a very busy schedule. Practices amounted to 10 hours of concentrated effort a week, often before school. Mil £ M r q The girls flash smiles to the audience while executing with ease a chain reaction. A unique pre-game routine, learned at camp was presented at home basketball games. Complete with umbrellas the majorettes performed to the popular tune Raindrops. A surprise was always in store for the appre- v ciative crowds. A rare occurrence is catching Stiner ' s steppers, known as Franklin ' s award winning majorettes, in a still pose.
