JAMIE BIGGAM started working at The Times Argus in 2000. Before that he was a writer, assistant news editor and features editor for the Bi-College News at Haverford and Bryn Mawr in Pennsylvania. He grew up in Plainfield and started playing Barre Youth Sports Association soccer when he was 5. He worked for the U-32 Chronicle for three-and-a-half years, and now a lot of his high school classmates have children on local varsity teams. JEB WALLACE-BRODEUR has been a photographer at The Times Argus for about 25 years. He grew up in Montpelier and graduated from Montpelier High School and Middlebury College. He ran cross-country and track in high school and was on the ski and golf teams, as well. He is self-taught, and learned the craft after receiving a camera as a college graduation present. He enjoys meeting and photographing so many wonderful members of our central Vermont community. JOSH KUCKENS started as a photographer with The Times Argus about a year BE A GOOD SPORT As a community we should all be committed to promoting the proper ideals of sportsmanship, ethical conduct and fair play at all athletic activities. We should oppose instances and activities that run counter to the best values of athletic competition in order to ensure the well-being of all individual players. We should expect acceptable standards of good citizenship and propriety with proper regard for the rights of others. We should be committed to the belief that schools participating in inter-scholastic athletic activities should be held responsible for the conduct of their players, coaches, faculty, parents and any other spectator. A few things to keep in mind as a fan: • Keep cheering positive. There should be no profanity or degrading language or gestures. • Avoid actions that offend visiting teams or individual players. • Show appreciation of good play by both teams. • Learn the rules of the game in order to be a better-informed spectator. • Treat all visiting teams in a manner in which you would expect to be treated. • Accept the judgment of coaches and officials. • Be good role models for athletes. A little common sense goes a long way toward making the sports experience a good one for the players and the spectators. ago. Josh discovered the paper when he was having his photograph taken by former staffer Stefan Hard. Starting out as a freelancer, he has become a staff photographer, and some of the year’s most memorable images are his. He lives in Hardwick. General Manager Shawn Stabell Content Editor, Steven M.
