About the Rangerette Showcase and Museum:
The Rangerettes are the dance and drill team of Kilgore College. Founded in 1939, the Rangerettes were one of the first dancing drill teams to entertain at sporting events, particularly during the halftime period at football games.
The Kilgore College Rangerettes are often called one of the world's most famous drill teams, and over the years the Rangerettes have traveled not only across the U.S., but across the world entertaining audiences.
The Rangerette Showcase and Museum is in the Physical Education Complex at the corner of Broadway and Ross streets on the Kilgore College campus. The showcase features mechnized displays of Rangerette props, costumes, photos and newspaper clippings detailing the group's history. Two wall-mounted televisions plus a small theater also show video of the Rangerettes.
The Rangerettte Showcase and Museum is open Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m., and Saturdays 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Admission is free.
