Baton twirling is now part of Mile High Sports Camps

New baton twirling camps, offered by Mile High Sports Camps, will offer kids in kindergarten through eighth grade the opportunity to have fun, make new friends, and do something active and healthy. Mile High Sports Camps serve the Cherry Creek School District and south metro area.

“Baton twirling is a sport that helps kids develop hand-eye coordination, flexibility, and teamwork skills” said Anna Dolan, camp director and a U.S. Twirling Association certified coach and judge. “Kids discover that they can do something unique and challenging, which also builds their self-confidence.”

Camps are offered three days a week from 10 a.m. to noon at Cherry Creek High School and from 1 to 3 p.m. at Eaglecrest High School. Campers will begin each day with fun body warm-up dances and stretching, followed by games and activities to learn baton twirling fundamentals with 1 and 2 batons, twirling flags, ribbons, and hoops. Every twirler receives their own baton and t-shirt. Each camp session ends with a performance for family and friends. Twirlers who participate in two or more sessions are eligible to perform in the Littleton Western Welcome Week Parade on Aug. 16.
