The Stepper-ettes, founded in 1973 by Sue, is the Midwest’s largest baton twirling and dance organization for young people aged 4 to college. Since its inception, the group has put on performances at over 600 local events, including parades, community celebrations, halftime shows, Special Olympics, assisted living facilities, the Henry Doorly Zoo, and the Governor’s Mansion. The Stepper-ettes are also the proud training grounds for many successful twirlers, cheerleaders, and dance team members, including Miss Nebraska 2001-Tina Foehlinger and Miss Nebraska 2016-Aleah Peters, as well as multiple collegiate marching band feature twirlers and high school feature twirlers. The Stepper-ettes truly have something for everyone!
