I was a mascot for the Windsor Royals, was only about 5 or 6. My uncle Jack bought me a buckskin tambourine and I loved it.

However, I seem to remember leading up to comp days or carnivals the older girls would be sniping about other members of the troupe. Such and sucher(?) one faints on purpose they'd say or, she'll add a flower or something to the dress just to gain attention.

Mr Evans used to run the troupe and we'd go to St Phillys once a week to practice. I don't remember whether he had a wife helping him. ,
