Welcome!
My name is Marsha McFalls and I am a 1991 graduate of South Fayette High School. I was a proud member of the Little Green Machine Marching Band as a piccolo player for one year and then as a majorette for four years; head majorette for three of those years. I also had the distinct honor of being the first and only feature twirler, to date, for the Little Green Machine during select shows throughout the season. Being a majorette opened up many opportunities for me. I went on to compete in the sport of baton twirling and trained with my coach at the world-champion Modernettes studio. I twirled in college with the Pride of Duquesne University Marching Band. After college, I was hired as the majorette coach for the Duquesne University Marching Band and the Upper St. Clair Marching Band. I started a twirling program at several local dance studios as well as my home twirling school. I am also a certified baton twirling instructor through Twirling Unlimited. Recently, I became the baton twirling instructor at Legacy of Dance, in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania and also continue to offer private baton twirling lessons. My daughter, Lauren, was head majorette in the Little Green Machine and is currently a University of Pittsburgh Golden Girl. As you can see, twirling for the Little Green Machine included experiences well beyond the football field.
I have been involved in multiple South Fayette Alumni Band performances since I graduated from high school. I have had the opportunity to meet some wonderful ladies. However, I noticed that there really is not a permanent record anywhere of all of the majorettes that have had the privilege to perform in front of the band. So...this website is my attempt to accomplish this.
History:
I have researched all decades since the beginning of the band. But, as you will notice, there are many blanks. I need your help in filling in these blanks. Also check out the History of Uniforms timeline!
Pictures and Videos:
I would like to share your memories. Please send me pictures and videos to post.
Members Only:

I am asking anyone that was a former majorette for the following:
Thank you for taking the time and for your help in making this website as informative, entertaining, and memorable as possible. Please forward the website link via e-mail, social media, etc. to any former majorette that you may know so that we can accomplish the goal of completing the history of the South Fayette Majorette and maintaining this for many years to come.
Sincerely and respectfully,
