Farnsworth Middle School in Guilderland is bringing back the holiday tradition of cereal box dominos to support those in need. Community members are encouraged to donate unopened boxes of cereal at the school's main entrance. The cereal boxes will be used to create a domino pathway throughout the school before being donated to the Backpack Program and Guilderland Food Pantry. The school aims to collect 1,000 boxes of cereal to surpass their previous donation record and help families in need this holiday season. <\/p>","image":"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1023\/675065333b7ee.jpg","author":{"name":"Seth"},"_mobile_inapp_url":"https:\/\/www.fly92.com\/_app_pages\/stations\/4902\/blogs\/posts\/78229"},{"id":"o1023-1481-65f355f61d308","url":"https:\/\/www.fly92.com\/blogs\/albany\/post\/robotics-competition-coming-to-mvp-arena\/","title":"Robotics Competition Coming To MVP Arena","date_published":"2024-03-14T19:54:30+00:00","summary":"High School robotics Students Compete with Robots!","content_html":"

In the heart of Vermont, a tale of heroism unfolded that has left the community in awe. A Vermont State Police trooper, whose courage and quick thinking saved the life of an 8-year-old girl, has become a beacon of hope and a testament to the dedication of law enforcement officers. On a frigid winter day, the tranquility of the Vermont landscape was disrupted by a distress call. An 8-year-old girl and her 6-year-old sister had fallen into a freezing pond near Cambridge, Vermont. The 80-year-old property owner was able to get the 6-year-old to safety but was unable to reach the 8-year-old near the center of the pond. The call was received by the Vermont State Police, who immediately dispatched Trooper Michelle Archer, who thankfully was only minutes away, to the scene.<\/p>\n\n
With great effort, Archer managed to pull the girl back to the shore where Trooper Keith Cote checked if the girl was okay before rushing her to an ambulance that was already on site. The child was taken to a hospital in Burlington with injuries that at first were thought to be life threatening but amazingly she made a full recovery and is now back home.<\/p>\n\n\n
