Small town, country town, farm town, drive-by town, cute town, tourist town, diverse town. A town filled with those who love tradition, those who are passionate for progression, and those who live in a silent coexistence. Living and learning in a town with variety is what growth is. Culpeper, Virginia is by no means perfect, but what is a perfect town? We’re all different. With our unique backgrounds and identities, it gives room for our views to blend together as we age. Being young and dumb in a small diverse town is also beautiful, because we still communicate the differences shared and we learn and grow with each other for each other. There’s no doubt that Culpeper natives are fighters (and fight, a lot). Whether you were born and raised or just attended high school here, there’s no denying these memories growing up in Culpeper Virginia:
