TCU Coach Makes Founders’ Day Appearance
TCU Head Football Coach and FWCD parent Sonny Dykes made this year’s Founders’ Day extra special when he surprised the FWCD community at the March 6 event. Introduced by his three children, Ally ’27, Charlie ’29 and Daniel ’35, Coach Dykes spoke about the value of education, the importance of being part of a community, and what it means to be a leader. “You are all a part of a community. You’re part of the Country Day community,” Dykes said. “You’re also members of organizations … you’re part of a team, and you’re also part of a bigger community which is the Fort Worth community. I think when you take on that responsibility of being a teammate, you take on a lot of things along with that. You have a shared interest … and as you get older, I think you’ll realize how special it is to be part of a team.” Throughout his speech, Coach Dykes connected how coaching a football team and what made the TCU team so special last season correlated to being part of the FWCD community.
