ABC’s Good Morning Texas will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Highlandettes Tuesday morning, hosting Lauren Turnbull, the current director, Julie Erck Brooks, captain from 1973-74 and a former director, and Amy Strawn Moore, Dette officer from 1990-91. Some members of the current team will also be in the GMT studio to perform a kick routine on live TV.
The coverage on WFAA (and in Advocate magazines this month) is promoting the 50th Anniversary and their Spring Revue “A Magical 50 Years,” to be held this Friday and Saturday night. Tickets are on sale now online here or can be purchased at the door (reserved seats are $10, general admission is $8), and the show begins at 7:30pm in the LHHS auditorium.
A special reception will be held in the auditorium rotunda before and after Saturday’s performance.
Highlandette alums from all 50 years are invited to gather at a tea Saturday in the home of Amy Strawn Moore from 2 to 4pm. Tickets are $10 per person, and reservations may be made by emailing Pam Woodiel here.
