Kirk Chambers - Early Years

Early Years

Chambers graduated from Provo High School in 1997. For three years he started both on offense and defense. He was a member of championship winning basketball teams at Provo High in 1995 and 1997. Chambers also participated in student government, Mr. Provo High, track and field, the Chamber Choir and a drama group modeled after the Reduced Shakespeare Company.

A distinguished high school athlete, Chambers was heavily recruited by Stanford University and by his home town school Brigham Young University, eventually selecting the Cardinal.

Before playing at Stanford, however, Chambers served a two year church mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Berlin, Germany.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:

    “Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
    —Barbara Bowman (20th century)

    “In former years it was said that at three o’clock in the afternoon all sober persons were rounded up and herded off the grounds, as undesirable. The tradition of insobriety is still carefully preserved.”
    —For the State of Vermont, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
