When the movie "The Bounty" starring Jennifer Aniston is released, check it out and see if you recognize Lauren Albro, Gabriella Collado, Michelle Fazio, Erica Henschel, Ashley Phipps, Cassie Zilavy and Kristin Zuech who were selected to go and be taped in a "4th of July" parade scene for the movie, the week of June 15th in New York City. 

 

A casting company in NYC contacted Karen Cammer at her BTNI office in New York requesting potential cast members.  21 talented baton twirlers, 18 years and older, sent their pictures to her in the hope of being selected to be a part of this exciting opportunity.  Karen says, “THANK YOU to all who responded to my emailed “cast call”, so quickly, making it possible for baton twirlers to be included in the filming.  Hopefully we will have many more opportunities like this!”

 

These seven amazing young women are current or former members of The Sparklers of Long Island, NY.  The Sparklers traveled to Australia in August as part of the USA International Cup Team. 

 

GOOD LUCK to them down under!!

  OUR ORGANIZATION

The Baton Twirling Network is a place where baton twirling athletes, professionals, organizational directors and interested parties can actively participate and grow.

We are an athletic educational and training organization that not only offers baton twirling experiences, but also crosses over into any/all athletic and artistic activities from which a twirler can benefit.

Professionals' Corner

Here is a great educational recommendation from one of the world's finest guard and baton judges.  Dale White is a master judge.  He is one of the WGI's most valuable judges and is the USA Judges' Rep to the WBTF.  Here is what he said:

I am doing weekly "newsletters" to all WGI judges preparing them for each week of judging.  I ran across this "talk" that I found very inspiring.  It's about an author and her self-nurturing approach to creativity.  I made this 'required' viewing for the guard judges and thought I'd pass it on to you, as well.......... It might be something we should try to pass on to  professionals in baton twirling.  It's 19 minutes long but definitely worth the time.

 

Enjoy!

 
Dale
