Glocester swears in three police officers; council honors Ponaganset basketball champions
Summary
The Glocester Town Council ceremonially promoted three police officers—Daniel LaFave, Robert Gloyd and Jeffrey Gattison—and unanimously adopted Resolution 2026-04 recognizing Ponaganset High School’s 2026 Division III boys basketball championship.
The Glocester Town Council opened its April 2 meeting by swearing in three promoted officers and adopting a resolution honoring the Ponaganset High School Chieftains.
Lieutenant Daniel LaFave, Sergeant Robert Gloyd, and Captain Jeffrey Gattison each took the official oath of office before the council and a packed chamber. Council President William A. Worthy and the town clerk offered applause and congratulations following each oath.
Later in the meeting the council considered Resolution 2026-04, which recognizes the Ponaganset Chieftains for winning the 2026 Division III Boys Basketball Championship, records the team’s 59–48 victory over Exeter–West Greenwich, and cites the team’s season record and coaching staff. The resolution was adopted by voice vote; council members and the audience applauded players and coaches, including head coach Todd French and assistants Mark Favreau and Benjamin Mungin.
The events were ceremonial and required no further action. The council moved on to business items after the recognitions.
