What Turbyville Thinks Of The Fast Blue Ridge League
The Blue Ridge League enjoys strong local support with loyal fans and modest crowds. It focuses on youth access, sound business practices, and civic pride, drawing leaders from business, politics, and sport. Founders Jamison, Von Schlegell, and Thompson steer a small, professional circuit built from the Tri City legacy. Col Baughman remains a steady booster from the old era.
