thankful to have developed an outstanding partnership with Culpeper Pickleball, according to Hardy. “T rough our collaborative eff orts, we
are looking to educate community members on the great sport of pickleball through a variety of classes, clinics, and tournaments. T ese programs will show participants that pickleball can be an active form of fun for anyone, regardless of their age, gender or ability,” Hardy added. T e status of a community pool project is
always a hot topic in Culpeper. T e longtime public push to build a pool appears to be coming to fruition. “Even before the Parks and Recreation
Department closed the doors, or better yet, opened the doors on one project (Culpeper County Fieldhouse), the planning for the next had already begun – the Culpeper Community Pool. Culpeper’s fi rst-ever community pool
has been a subject of discussion for several decades amongst county residents. T anks
