This event is named in memory of Vicki Bowden Mobbs, drum major for the Kilgore College Ranger Band during the years 1978-1980. In addition to being drum major at KC for two years, she was a Ranger Beauty, Homecoming Queen, vice president of the Student Affairs Congress, Who's Who at Kilgore College, was a member of Phi Theta Kappa and was chosen by the faculty as the Most Representative Female Student.
After leaving Kilgore College, she graduated cum laude from Stephen F. Austin State University with a bachelor's degree. She will always be a member of the Once...Always Kilgore College Twirlers Alumni organization and hold a special place in all of our hearts. Vicki worked with many majorette lines throughout East Texas. She died in August 1999 after a lengthy illness.
The Once...Always KC Twirlers have chosen to name the classic in honor of her and in rememberance of the love, dedication and perfection she had for twirling. Anyone who has been a part of Kilgore College Ranger Band and Twirlers knows that Vicki left a very powerful mark on all of us. The Classic takes place each year in November. See the Events Page for exact dates.
