The Local Area

Culpeper, Orange, and Madison counties in Virginia are early history relatives of the colonial age for this part of the United States. In fact, Culpeper was born from Orange County. Subsequently, both Madison and Rappahannock were born from Culpeper County. Therefore, the link between these counties goes back in time for many years. Thus, it would be both natural and reasonable to link these counties together when it comes to local sports history.

In recent years and decades, there have been a multitude of people who have made significant contributions toward sports for this area. This is not limited only to outstanding athletes. For example, businesses are actively involved in promoting and supporting sporting events for our local communities. The local school systems clearly play a vital role in the growth and development of sports in all smaller communities. However, let’s give due credit to those activities that lead up (and progressively build up) to the levels in the schools that ultimately gain the recognition for all things related to community athletics. In other words, local sports activities typically began at an early age, when you talk about those who participate in such programs. And, for those who sacrificed much toward the building blocks of local athletics, our smaller communities are very grateful. With that said, the local Hall of Fame (HOFLA) would like to respectfully recognize all those deserving of honor for significant contributions to the local sporting cause. As a resident of this area, you are invited to participate in the nomination (and ultimately the selection) of those worthy of sports related recognition. This is your opportunity to say, “Thank you”.
