Holy Trinity volunteers continueto assist at St. Mary of the IslesChurch in Long Beach, to help
Sandy recovery efforts. Holy Trinitygraduates from the ’70s through 2012joined current students, teachers andstaff in the school’s continuing relief ef-forts.Alumni heard about the school’s ef-
forts through social networks such asFacebook and Twitter, as well as duringthe school’s Thanksgiving Liturgy. Oneof the alumni volunteers was Joe Goliaof Long Beach, who graduated in 2010.Along with fellow Holy Trinity graduate(and son of a current Holy Trinityteacher), Brian O’Neill, also from theClass of 2010, the two are selling T-shirts and sweatshirts on the website re-vivethecoastline.com to raise money forHurricane Sandy relief efforts. One hun-dred percent of the money will go toWaves for Water, a coordinated a full-fledged hurricane relief initiative ad-dressing the initial survival needs onmany levels from first responder assis-tance to rubble removal and ultimatelythe rebuilding efforts. To date, they haveraised over $2,000.Rob Marciano, another 2010 graduate,
is a current student at John Jay Collegeof Criminal Justice in New York Cityand also a member of the Army NationalGuard. His unit was activated soon afterthe hurricane hit, but has since been de-activated. Rob, however, has continuedto volunteer every day that he does nothave class and was glad to be part of hisalma mater’s efforts.
Twin brothers, Ryan and ChristopherHardardt who graduated last May, feltobligated to be part of this effort. After amorning of sorting clothes and food andunloading donations, Ryan had this tosay about the experience, “This was ex-tremely humbling and it was a reminderof the values Holy Trinity taught me andhow we always have an obligation tohelp one another.”Kerry Friel-Minor, a graduate from
1984, commented, “This was the truespirit of Holy Trinity at work and I washappy to be a part of it.” Even those wholived too far away to help commented onsocial networks. “It was that sense ofbeing a part of something bigger thanyourself that made Trinity so special. Soglad to see that spirit is still alive andonly wish I lived closer so that I couldhelp,” commented Maura Pierce a 1975graduate.

critical categories, boasting an average of.679, and an on base percentage of .743.Kleinwaks’ teammate, eighth-grader An-thony Porrino, ranked an overall 9th inbatting with an average of .417 percent,and was second only to Kleinwaks, inreaching base .600 of the time.What makes these statistics even more

Recently, more than 50 Holy TrinityHigh School students volunteeredto serve lunch and celebrate the
holidays with more than 125 seniors at theCatholic Charities Serve-a-thon Christmasluncheon held at Molloy College.This is the sixth year that this event has
been held and Holy Trinity High Schoolhas partnered with them every year. Thosethat attended are serviced by the CatholicCharities’ four community service centersin Franklin Square, Oceanside, Seafordand Massapequa Park. The students so-cialize with the attendees, serve lunch and
dance the afternoon away to music pro-vided by a live band.Many of the students volunteer every
year at this particular event and several ofthe students graduating this year reflectedon the event. Samantha Hoher of MillNeck commented, “On my way over thismorning, I realized that this was the lastyear that I was going to be at this eventand it saddened me a bit. I have beencoming for four years and it has been agreat experience. I will miss seeing allthese smiling faces and watching themdance with such happiness.”
Holy TrinityH.S. DedicatesNew CrucifixThanks to more than 50
donors, Holy Trinity HighSchool installed a new cruci-
fix in front of the school. Holy Trini-ty’s chaplain, Fr. Joseph Fitzgerald,began seeking funding for the proj-ect at the school’s 45th AnniversaryMass in November of 2011. All ofthe funds were donated by currentfamilies and alumni, as well as theinstallation services and surroundinglandscaping.Fr. Joe reflected on the significance
of this symbol of faith. “It is a bless-ing that our families and alumni wereable to contribute to this project. Thecrucifix is an important symbol of ourfaith, which is the foundation of theeducation that we provide here atHoly Trinity.”
