2019 - Anita Cote
At the 2019 Homecoming football game the “Unsung Hero Award” was presented to beloved community member and volunteer, Anita Cote. If you've been to a home football or basketball game, the Lobster Bowl, and even the NE track meets that are held here on campus, you've probably seen Anita. She has been a mainstay at TA ticket booths since 1987. Her son Craig '88 played football for the Golden Trojans, and daughter Jen '90 competed on the field hockey team. Anita has also watched two grandchildren graduate; Thomas '17 & Andrew '19!
In 2016, Anita lost her beloved husband Spike who was a constant by her side at the ticket booth. Despite this loss, Anita has remained steadfast—game after game, ticket after ticket, Anita always shows up and cheers on the maroon and gold.
The Alumni Board and Thornton Academy community wish Anita a heartfelt thank you for all she has done.
