South Ripley Raiderettes Camp

Another successful Raiderettes Recital is in the books. South Ripley Raiderettes offered SR students to come to a week of camp followed by a recital performed in front of friends and family. Coach Faith Lafary, and assisted by Kris Lafary, dedicate many hours throughout the year instructing flags, majorettes, raiderettes and other performing groups. Over 70 young ladies participated in the week to learn the unique talent of twirling batons. Pictured is a group of campers performing a pom pom routine for the crowd learned during the week.
