Trinity Celebrates Founders' Day!

April 18, 2002

The Topping Off Ceremony

As part of this year's Founders' Day festivities, Trinity held a special "Topping Off" celebration in front of the Trinity Center for Women and Girls in Sports construction site.

During a construction project, it is a tradition to have a "topping off" celebration when the highest and last beam is welded into place. In honor of this event, Trinity students, athletes, faculty and staff gathered to raise the U.S. and College flag to the very top of the Trinity Center for Women and Girls in Sports.

Before the flags were raised, President McGuire spoke about the importance of marking this signicifant milestone for Trinity and for the Trinity Center. After the celebration, members of the Trinity toured the construction site.
