Local Baton Twirlers March in 104th NYC Veterans Day Parade

On November 11, 2023, local baton twirling athletes from Suffolk County-based Titanium Twirlers had the honor of twirling in the 104th Veterans Day Parade in New York City. This select group of young athletes hailing from Port Jefferson Station, Miller Place, Rocky Point, Yaphank and Mt Sinai twirled down 5th Avenue alongside 20,000+ other participants; honoring the American heroes who have served, and are currently serving, our country.

The parade, starting at 26th Street and ending at 45th Street, was a phenomenal event with crowds of spectators lining 5th Avenue along the entire route. Titanium Twirlers’ Head Coach Paige Papile says, her team of baton twirlers was “honored to be selected to twirl in such a special event, and to be surrounded by so many other marchers and attendees with the same goal; to remember and honor our country’s fearless and selfless heroes.”

Titanium Twirlers is a local 501(c)3 non-profit organization, with a mission to grow the sport of baton twirling while instilling the importance of community in young athletes. Through monthly community service initiatives, and performances in local events such as the Veterans Day Parade, Titanium Twirlers is honored to make a difference in young athletes' lives, and in their local communities.
