FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ALUMNI

Letter from the Director of Alumni

W

ELCOME to our new TCA Alumni Association Board members, Rebecca Beckett Cohenour ’04 and Patrick Rea ’14. We are excited to add them to our board. The TCA Alumni Association Board consists of 15 alumni who graduated between 1982 and 2015. We meet monthly and plan events and projects that serve our alumni.

Our mission is to strengthen, serve and advance TCA’s overall mission by connecting alumni and alumni parents relationally, professionally and spiritually with the TCA community.

We have our two annual events where all alumni are invited and we have the largest attendance: the Homecoming Alumni Dinner and Spring Alumni Weekend. In addition, we host events for targeted groups of alumni and alumni parents, like the Legacy Breakfast, a luncheon for moms of recent graduates, college care packages for the Class of 2022, alumni admissions preview and college visits.

We are planning networking events for specific professions, such as law, real estate, sales and the medical field, within our alumni base. Our target date is to start in January of 2023. We will be hosting smaller events for our class agents to get together to work on communication and planning for reunions. We will send more information as plans for these events solidify.

The Trojan Tradition newsletter is published bimonthly to keep alumni informed of news and events. Make sure we have your current email address. Go to www.trinitychristian.org/alumni/update -contact-information to update your address.

Our goal is to keep our alumni and alumni parents connected to TCA. Our community has not changed over the years; it is still one of our best assets at TCA, where lifelong friends are made, business contacts and working relationships are established, prayer groups are formed, teachers and coaches are making a difference in students’ lives and, most importantly, our community is Christ-centered in all that we do.

Director of Alumni
