DICKSON CITY, Pa. — The Double “R” Twirlettes are back again!  The baton twirling group is holding its annual Twirl-a-Thon this Saturday from 12 to 3 p.m. at the Viewmont Mall.  The Twirl-a-Thon is in its 48th year.

The event is a fundraiser for St. Joseph’s Center, which is a place that helps children and adults with disabilities.

Last year’s event raised more than $5,700. The Twirlettes say their goal each year is to raise $1 more than the year before.

The Twirl-a-Thon is free and will be at the Viewmont Mall on Saturday, April 5, from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.
