STMC ~ A TRADITON OF EXCELLENCE
As we sit and play in our beautiful new athletic facility, take a moment to
give yourself a well deserved pat on the back. As alumni we have played a
huge role in making this athletic facility a reality through our monetary
contributions. However, our role in overall life of STMC involves a lot more
than the outlay of dollars.
Did you know that we have 19 members of the Knights of Old currently
working on the STMC staff?
Did you know that we have 11 members of the Knights of Old involved as coaches in the STMC
Basketball program? It is no secret as to why we are perennial powers at the Provincials with our
girls finishing third in the province last year and currently ranked third. And our Boys winning the AAA
crown last year and sitting fourth this year! You, the alumni, are a big part of our success on the
hardwood.
However, in typical STMC fashion, you, the alumni, come to help out in all the programs the school
offers from Campus Ministry Programs to Dragon Boating from Music and Drama to Football and
Track. STMC has such a great reputation in the community and that is in no small way, thanks to the
support of the alumni.
Thank you and please, please keep it up!!!
Hank Bouwman
Thank You! Thank You Very Much!
This tourney, now in its 18th year, adds a lot to the history and tradition of
STMC. I thank you for coming out and being part of this special event.
Remember also, that this tourney is one the Alumni Association’s more
significant fundraisers. The monies raised go to help fund the Knights of Old
Scholarship and so many other worthwhile projects in the school.
I would also like to thank the many individuals who volunteer their time and
talents to make this tourney run. The team captains perform such an integral
role in managing their teams. It would not happen without you. Thanks to
James Borthistle for arranging for the student bench officials and, of course,
thanks to the students themselves. Awesome! I also want to thank Jorden
Foss and James Garbutt (2001) and the Steel and Oak Brewing Company for
being the official beer supplier. Very Nice! Finally a thank you to all those
working the hospitality room. Tremendous!
James Garbutt (’01)
We got spirit!
Yes we do!
I really want to acknowledge two individuals who stepped up big time. John
Spanjers and Dave Dawson have been tremendous. When you see them,
say thank you to them. They have been great! Anytime you give thank you’s, I
always miss someone and I am sure I have this time! Sorry!
The 18th Annual Alumni Tourney is unique in my experience. NO OTHER
SCHOOL CAN PULL AN EVENT OFF LIKE THIS! The tourney is tangible
evidence of STMC’s unmatched community spirit. We are blessed!
