Joy Kenerly
Owner and Designer
Joy has designed custom baton twirling costumes for more than two decades for college feature and line twirlers, and state and national-level pageant contestants. Joy has been involved with baton twirling for most of her life. She is a former NBTA competition twirler and a former University of Georgia majorette.
She twirled in three Sugar Bowl games and one National Championship game when the Georgia Bulldogs won in 1980! In recent decades, she has traveled the country and the world with her daughters, Jameson Kenerly (UGA Feature Twirler) and Adeline Kenerly (UGA Majorette) twirling in NBTA and USTA competitions, including 15 consecutive years at AYOP and three International Cup competitions in Sydney, Australia, Jacksonville, FL, and Almere, Netherlands.
"Designing costumes and then seeing them on the floor at competitions is absolutely a dream come true for me. I love the sport of twirling and the athleticism and artistry of choreography. I believe the costuming is an integral part of the whole package. I love what I do and I am blessed by the most talented and amazing staff who can make my dreams a reality," says Kenerly. "Kenerly Kreations, Inc. has become a world-leader in custom twirling costuming. I am proud of where the company has gone and look forward to what the future holds. We have been very blessed."
