EVENTS for 2023-24
New this year, Trinity Black and Gold Gala (FKA Exceptional Evening)
We encourage all Trinity families to join us for the biggest, annual event of the school year – An Exceptional Evening. Each year, attendees continue to talk about what a special time this gathering is for our Trinity community. For those who are new to Trinity or have never attended, please allow us to share why we hold this annual event:
First and foremost, it is a fundraiser for the Trinity Fund (our Annual Fund that supports operations and strategic initiatives), but it is so much more. It is as much about building community and growing owners in Trinity Academy as it is about cultivating funds. At Trinity, we strive to keep our focus on the trustworthiness and abundance of God to provide for our needs, not individuals in our community. We want your heart to be engaged in this unique community of faith and learning.
The 2023-24 event will be held on Saturday, January 20, 2024 at The Pavilion at the Angus Barn. Information will be forthcoming about this revised event.
