What is the Stone Castle
 

“BLUEFIELD, Va. — Town officials in Bluefield, Va. are seeking a resolution to the ongoing stadium usage impasse that could effect where the home games of the Graham G-Men are played.
 

However, officials with the town of Bluefield, Va., are concerned about the loss of revenue to area businesses if the Graham High School fan base would have to travel to Tazewell. They also have concerns for the safety of those parents and fans who would have to travel a longer distance to watch a home game, according to Bluefield, Va. Town Manager Andrew Hanson.
“Yes the town does have a concern that there would be an economic loss to the town should the games not be played in one of the two Bluefields,” Hanson said. “And we have voiced that concern to the school superintendent. And voiced the concern to the county administrator and to our county representative. So from the economic and business side of the house, the town does have an interest and is concerned about that, and for the safety of the parents and children that would be driving away from the area for the home games.”
While the town hasn’t received a response yet from the school system, the issue is expected to be discussed in a closed-door executive session of the Bluefield, Va. Town Council on June 24. Hanson said Chuck Presley, the Eastern District representative on the Tazewell County Board of Supervisors, has been asked to attend that meeting.“

Only picture I can find is historical book of the county.  Took in 1942.  From that picture, home plate would have roughly been in the general area where the goal line and home sideline meet.  Inserted video from Coach Mabry's youtube channel to give an idea.

Shorthorns is a unique mascot.  Much like Sugar Leafs or something that was near Marion. I wish these consolidating schools would become original in their mascot names.

Also, another former Appy League ballpark.  Home of the 2 time league champion New River Rebels.  

Fun fact, Council Cobra cheerleaders were given Hazard Duty pay for their time and effort in the early 1990's.

This may be the best thread ever. I'm loving it.

I know it used to be that radio broadcasts from Abingdon were horrible.  So much stadium and fan noise coming across that you couldn't hear the broadcasters.

From personal experience in no particular order 
BEST:
Honaker - Updated with Air Conditioning
Giles - Good size & it’s neat watching a game from the away team’s side 
Virginia High - Bathrooms in the press box 

Ridgeview - WiFi, media packets & they brought me cowboy beans at halftime  
Fort Chiswell - Decent size room and it’s interesting watching their fans sit in the dark 
 
Worst:
Lebanon - a hike through the school to cram into one room with everyone else 

Marion - I forgot my telescope at home 
Mitchell Stadium - Dead flies & jammed cell signal 
Princeton - Small room & very hot
Union - Even smaller room

Calfee Park in Pulaski?

About threw my TE right into the rock sticking out of the NE corner of the end zone.

Union's windows are too small. Ridgeview is facing the sun. Central isn't bad, not enough room though.

“Dr. Stacy advised Board members that the Mitchell Stadium agreement was for two years beginning August 1, 2023 and concluding on July 31, 2025 at a cost of $60,000 per year. According to the agreement, the school division would not be charged the extra $5,000 per playoff games, and Graham High School would not have to turn over 25% of the concession revenue, as in past years.” 

Top 5 press box in the area!

Don't say HON-AKER, its HO-NAKER

Castlewood up to no good.

Maybe Graham can play a few games at Mount View's beautiful new facility?
I'm sure some of the folks would appreciate not having to drive far to watch their kids play.

What is the Eagles Nest in the Cove.

So it is all ego and emotional. We are going to spend all this money for something we already have just so we can be just as good as Tazewell and Richlands. We "deserve" it. You already have it for less hassle and cost than Tazewell and Richlands.

Or you can go completely lazy and do "Eagles."
Yeah, I'm looking at you Buchanan County.
