More About the Gangi Bay State Strutters
The Gangi Bay State Strutters Baton Twirling Team proudly celebrates its 40th anniversary this season. Founded by champion twirler and N.B.T.A. Hall of Fame member Diane Gangi George, the team and baton studio are now directed by sisters Tracey Gangi Johnson and Elaine Gangi Kane (who is also in the Hall of Fame). The three sisters have combined their favorite interests of baton twirling, performing for the public and traveling as goals for the group, resulting in a respected and widely traveled unit.
Along with public performances, many members have been involved in competition on the group and individual levels. This opportunity has afforded its own benefits in travel as trips have been made throughout the Northeast and to national competitions throughout the country. The twirlers learn life lessons in good sportsmanship, self-confidence, teamwork, friendship and self-discipline. The many benefits in the sport of baton twirling include improved coordination, flexibility, grace and physical fitness. (There is a Presidential Sports Award given for baton twirling.)
