My daughter doesn’t cheer, but she dances and she sings in church on Sunday - when she’s not serving on the altar. We also still pray before ballgames and other times! As there are advantages to living in a small town in TN, many (if not all) of those same advantages are found here in small town VA!!!
It’s a small town advantage that I hope never changes. I think most of Virginia is pretty conservative, or it used to be, especially the small towns and mountain people.
