Twirling at the elite level requires precision spinning manoeuvres with the baton while incorporating dance and gymnastics into the routine. Gravity is also an important factor after the twirler rolls out of a somersault and expects to cleanly catch the baton, only to have it leave a broken nose, chipped teeth, a black eye or body bruises. "No pain, no gain," Begg sighed. A new Georgetown resident and a Starlight Destiny teammate of Begg's, Jamie Webster, represented Canada at the 2006 world championships in Holland. Franklyn said she has about a half-dozen new members and hopes to restore the club's former competitive base of about 40 athletes. "We've had great success with the club in Brampton for the past four or five years and I'd like to expand it back into Georgetown," said Franklyn, a behavioural teacher assistant at Lincoln Alexander Secondary School in Brampton. "A lot of people don't know about (baton twirling) and we feel it's just a matter of getting it out there for the public to see us perform at the Santa Claus Parade and events like that." Classes for the new Halton Hills-based branch of Starlight Destiny are held Tuesdays at Glen Williams Public School from 6-7 p.m. For more information about the Starlight Destiny club, call 905-230-2849 or visit the website www.starlightdestiny.com.
