“Lucky, lucky us!” — as Trigger would say — to have celebrated three truly remarkable members of our St. John’s community in recent years: Trigger Butler, Walter Sorensen, and most recently Martin Delabano ’67. With crowds of more than 100 at each luncheon, these celebrations have been deeply meaningful as alumni, parents, grandparents, and friends return to campus to share stories—not only about each honoree, but about their own cherished time at St. John’s. We are so grateful for the big hearts, lasting connections, and love for the School that fill the room each year, and we already can’t wait for the next celebration.

As we look ahead, we invite you to help us select our next Trigger Butler Impact Award recipient. Nominees must embody the School’s mission and exemplify the spirit of this prestigious award and may include former faculty or staff, alumni, alumni parents or grandparents, former members of the Board of Trustees, or friends of the School. Current faculty and staff, current parents, students, grandparents, and current trustees are not eligible.

To nominate someone for the 2026 Trigger Butler Impact Award, please complete the nomination form by May 1, 2026.

If you have questions, please contact Ginny Burgher Alumni & Special Projects Coordinator.
