The TCPAAA organization was incorporated August 2, 2000. By laws were written and approved by the Board of Directors as well as Articles of Incorporation. Those Board members were: John Bryan, Marvin Pugh, Rebecca Cavanaugh-Miller, Tim Stanford, Patricia Steinhausen, Barbara Stewart, Steve Brown, Max Loomis, and June Kuehn.

By-laws were established by the Alumni Association as well as a bank account.

There are nine Board member positions. Of those nine there are three Officer positions. The Officers are elected by the Board to those positions. They are currently :President, Secretary and Treasurer. There six other Board members at large. There is no Vice President.

Elections for the Board are held on the last Wednesday of each May at the time of the annual general membership meeting. The Officers are voted on by the Board.

Dues are collected each December for annual membership. Membership runs from January 1 thru December 31 each year. They are used to cover all expenses of the Alumni Association i.e.; mailing supplies, promotional materials, and /or anything needed to sustain the organization. Fees for the State of Colorado to retain a non-profit organization. We have donated money to the Police Department for Officer training as well as sending an Officer to the national citizens Police academy convention. In the event of an officer injury help to the families of those officers.

The bank account was established for the dues that are collected. That account is maintained by Carol Morris (Treasurer). It is currently at North Valley Bank.

There are no monthly meetings for the general membership at this time. Our monthly meetings currently are continuing education classes held from September thru May. We have found this to be a better way of using our members time as we have learned that when a regular monthly meeting is scheduled we have a poor turn out.

We are currently members of the National Citizens Police Academy Association.
