When I was growing up, Colonial Beach had a big advantage in Northern Neck high school basketball. Their school at the time was so tiny that they didn't have enough room in their gym for a full-size basketball court. So they had two midcourt lines; the one that counted was the one that allowed the frontcourt at the moment to be regulation-sized. So when opposing teams came to play and ran practiced fast break plays, they'd often run right past the end of the court out of habit. It was sometimes pretty hilarious.

I gather they've gotten a better school since then. The original school burned down recently, but it seems that perhaps they managed to save the gym? I found this article on it.

I grew up in King George, which is an even more nowhere place just to the west of Colonial Beach. :)

I never thought I'd live to see the day when a cubing competition was held in the Northern Neck. I really regret that I couldn't have been there to support it.

Hey KingDolphin123,

I (for obvious reasons living way to far away) did not attend the competition, but I enjoyed watching your video. Great job on it.
