A letter from the TJC President and CEO
Welcome to the 2022 Apache Belles Spring Show!
Dearest Beautiful People,
Our beloved Tyler Junior College continues to lead the way in every
aspect of our core values, which include unity, caring, integrity,
empowerment, and excellence. I celebrate the vision of the Board of
Trustees, the leadership of the executive cabinet and administration, and
the commitment to excellence by the faculty and staff for an unwavering
commitment to student and community success.
TJC is a caring institution, and we stand wholeheartedly in solidarity with
all of our family and friends, and our hope is that the College will always
serve as a welcoming and safe haven for you and yours. The 2022 year kicked off with continued
victories and successes, and we remain committed to taking TJC to the highest level of excellence
possible.
Today, I am delighted to welcome you to Apache Nation, home of the Black and Gold, and to the
Rogers Palmer Performing Arts Center, a true facility masterpiece that became a reality because
of great philanthropists and supporters, empowering others to the point of excellence. To the TJC
Foundation and to all supporters, “Thank you!”
Of paramount importance, we celebrate and honor all TJC alumni, who are without a doubt the very
best anywhere. Rest assured as well of our commitment to honor the legacy of our distinguished Belle
Gold!
As a united TJC, I invite you to enjoy each other’s company, share your appreciation with the very
special people who made the 2022 Apache Belle Spring Show a reality, applaud loudly, and live the
Apache Belle legacy to its fullest!
To continue honoring the Circle – Ladies and gentleman, please help me welcome the 74th and 75th
lines!
Juan E. Mejia

The 74th Line Our Lovely Ladies of 74: You’ve embraced the unexpected and continued the RECORD of excellence. You jumped right into a Spring football season immediately following last year’s Spring Show with a fall football season close on its heels! You did it all with excitement- just grateful to be able to perform after all the uncertainty of the previous years. As an organization that thrives on repetition and tradition you have learned to be flexible and thankful no matter what comes your way. Throughout it all you modeled this for future Apache Belles and as this team forges on into its 75th year it stands tall on the shoulders of lines such as yours that have modeled for, and instructed others in, the pride and poise that is always incumbent upon those that wear the timeless uniforms of the Apache Belle organization. No matter where your road takes you may it always lead you back to Tyler your Apache Belle sisters. We will be here with open arms because “It’s not just 2 years- it’s a lifetime.” Mrs. Schaefer and Mrs. Evans FOR THE RECORD 7

The time is near to watch you spread your wings and fly on to your

guided you thus far and will soon land you in Starksville, MS; where you
will attend Mississippi State University and furthermore blossom into
an individual young lady full of ambition. To say that I am proud is an
understatement. I have so many emotions that have surfaced lately. I
cannot wait to have a front row seat to the big things in life you are
eager to achieve. I love you CYDNEY McKAY with my entire being.
Love, Momma
Babydoll, I’ve always been told that a Good Leader is one
that inspires people to dream and you have done exactly
that. You take such Pride in everything you do and the
confidence you display is so inspiring.

Alaina-
What a gift it has been to watch
you as an Apache Belle over the
past 2 years. We’ve loved cheering
you on at every game and event
we’ve gotten to attend. Over the
past couple of years, we have seen
you grow as a dancer and it has
filled our hearts with pride. We
have seen you grow as a leader and
it has inspired us. We have seen the
incredible bonds of love and
friendships you have formed and
we know that you were made for
the Belles and the Belles were
made for you. Our hope for you is
that you continue building
incredible bonds of love and
friendship, that the love for what
you do continues to inspire others,
and that you continue to lead by
your example. We can’t wait to see
what is next for you and look
forward to watching it all unfold.
We love you,
Dad, Mama, Ian, & Allison

Dad, Steve, Eden, and Davis
I’m so proud of everything you’ve accomplished
so far, from trying out and making the team, to
working your hardest all the time. Sometimes it’s
not gonna be easy and sometimes you just don’t
feel like you’re up to the challenge. The most
important mindset is to try your hardest no
matter how impossible it may seem. I support
you 100% in everything you do and hope to see
you live at spring show, you’re gonna do great! I
love you!
Love, Parker

Grant, Brandon, Raffe, Aaron and Tyler:
We have been so blessed by each of you this year. You each have
contributed in your own unique way. Hauling rim skirts, preparing
coolers of water and ice, moving anything and everything that needed
moving (and then moving it again and again and again) and repairing
and moving the giant truck props. You literally move mountains!
Tonight the spotlight is yours (for one number at least).
