Queensbury UFSD Inducts First Members of the New Athletics Hall of Fame

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Education, Featured, Sports.

When John “Jack” LaBombard came to Queensbury in 1966, he fell in love. 

“I absolutely fell in love with Queensbury,” LaBombard said. “Not just the school and the district, but even looking around at the mountains, it felt like home.”

LaBombard was a physical education teacher at Queensbury Union Free School District from 1966 to 1997 and coached baseball, football, golf, and wrestling… LaBombard led Queensbury’s varsity wrestling program for 31 years and is considered one of the most successful wrestling coaches in New York State history!

LaBombard was inducted into the Queensbury UFSD’s new Athletics Hall of Fame during a ceremony Saturday, October 14th at the Courtyard by Marriott in Lake George. 

“I showed up every day, and I worked hard, and I was very intense, and I loved the kids, I loved the school, I loved everything about it,” LaBombard said. “Teaching and education in general is a giving profession. A little bit of you gives every day when you go to school… And coaching is a giving profession.”

The new Athletics Hall of Fame recognizes and honors athletes, coaches, teams, administrators, staff and community members who have made significant contributions to Queensbury’s athletics program. 

After nearly 75 years of athletic excellence, the inaugural class includes two teams of distinction and 41 individual honorees. The first half of the group was inducted Saturday. The second half will be inducted in fall of 2024.

Tim Jones, the school’s sports information specialist, served as the evening’s master of ceremonies. Jones spent countless hours researching, and collecting information and stories about the rich history of Queensbury athletics. 

“It is truly humbling to be in the presence of this tremendous group of inductees and a pleasure to honor your gifts and achievements,” Jones told the crowd. “Thank you all for authoring such amazing stories, which embody the Spartan spirit. To those we’ve lost, the memories of your contributions to Queensbury’s history of athletics and our community will be cherished forever.”

Rich Keys – Queensbury’s director of health, physical education and athletics – recalled being interviewed by Lloyd Mott, who was posthumously inducted into the Hall of Fame.  

“I always knew that if I could work to develop the passion for coaching and teaching that both Terry Martin and Jack LaBombard had, have the poise of Bill Smith, Al Hammel’s ability to connect with children, Fran Cabana’s energy and enthusiasm – that of a superhero, which many of those elementary students still think that he is – and the class and professionalism of Lloyd Mott, things would work out just fine.

“Now, it’s been 30 years, and I haven’t achieved any of those things,” Keys laughed, “but I certainly am appreciative for what those people have done to influence me so I could further my career and have an opportunity to do things like this.”

Robert “Bob” Glendening traveled to Queensbury from his home in Scotland to be inducted into the Hall of Fame… A standout three-sport athlete at Queensbury, Glendening was a Major League Baseball eighth-round draft pick, and signed with the Chicago Cubs following his junior year at St. Lawrence University. Following his professional baseball career, Glendening served as a U.S. Marine Corps pilot for 14 years.

“When I see so many men that I work with now that didn’t have the background that I had — two parents who love each other, a support group like this, a dream of a childhood through high school… I’m just so grateful for all the people in this room that poured so much in me,” Glendening said.

Many athletes and coaches honored Saturday night paid homage to fellow inductee John Dennett, a physical education teacher, coach and administrator who completely transformed the district’s athletic department from 1968 to 1982. 

Jennifer Dennett Johnston held her father’s hand as she called her father a role model for his family, young athletes and the greater Queensbury community.

“He has taught us that success is not about the destination, but the journey, and that true victory is not just about winning on the field, but about winning in life,” Johnston said. “As a father, he has instilled in all of us the values of commitment, respect and integrity. He has been our pillar of strength, our source of wisdom and our greatest fan… He has shown us that greatness is not just about what you accomplish, but the impact you have on others, the lives you touch, and the legacy you leave behind.”

Superintendent of Schools Kyle Gannon reminisced about time he spent with many of the coaches honored Saturday night… He recalled the distinct voice of the late-Dr. John “Jack” V. Irion, who was Queensbury’s superintendent for 21 years from 1973 until 1994. 

Gannon coached football, and after the team lost to Scotia, Dr. Irion looked at Gannon and said, “Good game, Coach.”

“That one statement of encouragement makes me think of all the individuals being honored here tonight,” Gannon said. “‘Good game…’ Such a small but poignant way to cap off years of work, hours of practice, daily sacrifices, everything that makes these athletes, coaches and contributors extraordinary.”

8 Behavioral Cues That May Indicate Your Child Needs Help

Written by Command on . Posted in Community, Featured, News.

As a boy growing up in Canada, all I ever wanted to do was play hockey. I never gave things like jobs and careers much thought, I never figured out what I wanted to be when I “grew up”, and I certainly did not purposefully set out to become a teacher.

I struggled in school, especially math, and never seemed to find my way. I rarely did my homework, and studying was like a foreign concept. That being said, there was one aspect of school I did love, and that was writing. I was even entered into a Young Writer’s Conference in Grade 5 with some influential Canadian authors, but unfortunately some rather poor experiences in high school English, with a rather unsupportive teacher, extinguished my desire to write. Needless to say, had you asked me at the end of high school if I would become a teacher, you probably would have been laughed at. Despite my own struggles with academics growing up, I have been an educator for the past eleven years or so, in four countries, and have loved every minute of it. 

if there is something that teaching in four countries, with four different curriculums has taught me; it is that they are all pretty much the same. Apart from subtle little differences, Math is Math, and English is English.

Some children excel in school and some children struggle. There is no one perfect curriculum that caters to the specific educational needs of each and every child, and inevitably, there will come a time when all parents, will be faced with the same questions: How do I know if my child is doing well, and how will I know if my child needs help?

While no two children have the same needs, if you recognize any of the following behavioral cues in your child it may be time to reach out for help. 

1. Homework Blues:

Homework is an important part of a child’s education. It is meant to consolidate learning that occurs in the classroom, encourages independent learning, time management, and a host of other factors. However, if homework struggles have become a nightly ritual, and if tantrums, a poor attitude, procrastination, screaming, and kicking all sound familiar, then this may be your child’s way of asking for help.

2. Avoiding School:

This one is classic.“Moooom. I don’t feel well. I don’t want to go to school today. Cough. Cough.” Let’s be honest – we all tried this at one point or another, usually with a very low success rate. Generally speaking, it is usually very obvious when a child is too ill to attend school, and while it is perfectly normal for most children to want the odd day off, if this type of behavior starts to happen on a regular basis, it could be a warning.

3. Lacks Motivation Or Carelessness:

Everyone can relate to this one. There are times in life when you really don’t want to complete a task, you don’t put forth very much effort, and simply do the minimum to get by. However, children typically have a natural tendency to want to please the adults in their life, whether parent or teacher. If your child is regularly unmotivated by school and shows no interest whatsoever, it’s time to find out why. There is always a reason. Perhaps they are not being challenged enough, or perhaps the work is too challenging. Either scenario can manifest in disinterest and a child who is unmotivated by school. 

4. Poor Grades/Test Results:

Tests are no fun. Ever. It doesn’t matter how old you are, or when you take them. And while I usually caution about reading too much into test scores, like it or not, they are an important part of every child’s education, and when used in the right ways, they can also be an accurate indication of how well your child is progressing at school. If their test scores are consistently low, or do not seem to be in line with their normal school achievement, then it could be time to find out why.

5. Suffers From Low Self-Esteem Or Anxiety:

Anxiety can be quite natural at times. However, the type of anxiety I am talking about here is extreme. Does your child seem stressed out, become physically ill, extremely fearful, or worry constantly about schoolwork?This type of behavior can be worrisome in children, and if left unchecked, can present as low self-esteem; severely limiting confidence and the ability to succeed academically.

6. Dishonesty:

If engaged and interested in school, most children will want to talk about the exciting things they have been learning. There is nothing quite like a child who has learned something new and had a “light bulb moment”. They want to share their newfound knowledge with anyone who will listen. Consider the alternative for a moment.

How often have you heard these lines?

Parent: “What did you learn at school today?” Child: “Nothing.”

“Do you have any homework tonight?” “No.”

“Do you have any studying to do?”“No.”

This will resonate to anyone who has teenagers in the house. However, if you are consistently hearing these responses from your child it should be a red flag, especially for children in upper grades.

7. Poor Time Management Skills Or Independence:

A very important skill, that a lot of schools and curriculums are trying to instill, is for children to be independent learners and take ownership of their education. Try telling this to a ten year old who just wants to play video games or watch television. But, if it seems that homework takes way too long to complete, there is non-stop nagging to get it completed, or always finding out about assignments at the last minute, then your child could benefit from receiving some extra help.

8. Hopelessness:

Have you or your child given up hope completely? Does it seem like you have tried every possible solution, but nothing seems to work?Unfortunately, this is a very common occurrence in a lot of households.  Most parents are very supportive of their children. They try helping with homework, only to be met with tears, tantrums, and resistance. Parents try showing alternative methods for solving problems, only to be told, “My teacher won’t let us do it that way.”

If it seems that all you are doing is pulling out your hair and nothing works, then it may be time to seek outside help to get your child (and your own sanity) back on track.

Before I wrap this up, let me tell you one last short story. I remember trying to learn my times tables as a child. I vividly recall my mother making flashcards and setting the timer on the microwave. Ten minutes practice after dinner, every night. What I remember next is not the actual practice, and not even the fact that I eventually managed to learn my times tables. No, I remember the floods of tears that accompanied that practice each and every night.

Why is this important you may ask? Well, as an adult who is getting closer and closer to his fourth decade, I can tell you that I still remember those struggles growing up. They are ingrained into my memory, and something I constantly assess as a teacher. My goal as a teacher has always been to make sure every student I come across has a better time in school than I did, and looks back at their time with fonder memories than I do.

I am not naïve enough to think that children under my tutelage have never struggled with any of the issues above, in fact quite the contrary, I’m sure many of them have. The simple point I am trying to make, is that if you wonder about any of the behavioral cues or signs above, then ask for help. You are not alone. Your child’s teacher can provide a wealth of knowledge and insight into the fascinating little creature that is your son or daughter. Alternatively, hiring the services of a professional in-home tutor can pay for itself over and over again, by addressing all these needs and more.

Stolen Fuel Truck Recovered… Ran Out Of Fuel

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Community, Featured, News.

On Monday, October 16th at 5:45 AM, a fuel truck was stolen from Rutland Fuel Company in Rutland, Vermont… The fuel truck was recovered later the same day in Glens Falls, after the truck seemingly ran out of fuel. The 2023 Frieghtliner, owned by Scot Sullivan, was carrying 800 gallons of fuel. No arrests have been made.  

 The truck was located at 1:35 PM in Glens Falls,and reported to police by Kelsey Duprey of Glens Falls: “I was pretty shocked to see the truck where I am right now just because of how far away it is,” Duprey said. 

The truck had been seen early in the morning being operated in an unsafe manner. The concerned citizen called the Rutland Fuel Company and left a message regarding the vehicle being driven recklessly. 

Owner, Scot Sullivan posted on Facebook for help. There was a sighting reported by a woman from Ticonderoga who spotted the truck and posted a video of the alleged thief wearing a hardhat and vest. She called the police.

Sullivan credits the use of social media for helping to recover the truck: “I think it helped law enforcement, and it certainly helped us track where he was. People of all walks of life were sharing it and we were getting reports of the truck in Pittsford, in Brandon, in Middlebury, in Vergennes,” Sullivan said.

Agricultural Stewardship Association: Farm Leasing Circle

Written by Kate Haggerty on . Posted in Business, Community, Featured, Home & Garden, Property.

On Thursday, October 26th, 2023, the Washington County Fair Office – located at 392 Old Schuylerville Road in Greenwich – will be hosting  a Farm Lease Learning Circle for Non Farming Landowners. This event will take place between 6:30 PM and 8:00 PM.

This event provides information to any landowner who would like more information about making their land available for farming. Nicole Tommell from the Cornell Cooperative Extension and farmers Jason Heitman and Andrea Grom will talk about what should be considered in developing a successful farm lease. The event provides an opportunity to meet landowners and service producers, ask questions, and learn about future goals. 

The Agricultural Stewardship Association (ASA) is a non-profit, community-supported land conservancy dedicated to protecting local farm land and working forests from encroaching development. The ASA is one of the very few land trusts in New York State focused exclusively on conserving working farms and forests. The ASA was founded in 1990, and has helped to conserve over 30.200 acres of 165 properties in Washington and Rensselaer counties.

This program is supported by American Farmland Trust, with support from the New York State Conservation Partnership Program and the New York Environmental Protection Fund.
