What's there to do in/near Danville?

A few things to check out...

What day of the week will you be there? What times?
EDGEMAN • 08/09/22 07:51 PM ET
If you're driving Old 97 it's a hell of a ride into Danville.**
Hokie in CT • 08/09/22 07:25 PM ET
Get some archeological socks.**
MEHOKIE • 08/09/22 06:32 PM ET

Tons of cool uniforms, too.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 08/09/22 02:48 PM ET
Cool place, but all the mannequins are a bit odd. **
reestuart • 08/09/22 07:41 PM ET
How did that end up in Danville?
Atlee Hokie • 08/09/22 02:54 PM ET
My guess? An extra bit of pork in an appropriation bill for whatever
Late 80s Hokie • 08/09/22 03:04 PM ET
My guess as well. Former 5th Dist congressman Dan Daniels was from Danville**
RoswellGAHokie • 08/09/22 06:40 PM ET
Timing and space, I think.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 08/09/22 02:59 PM ET
It took me way longer than I care to admit to realize they were talking...
hokiehunter07 • 08/09/22 04:04 PM ET
If I'm ever in Danville w/o the trailer I'll try to visit it.
Atlee Hokie • 08/09/22 03:44 PM ET
There’s a town nearby called Tight Squeeze. Nothing to do there but I like

JoesterVT • 08/09/22 01:35 PM ET

BobG • 08/09/22 09:53 PM ET
Investigate who Dan was. And why they named the town after him.**
Stork • 08/09/22 12:14 PM ET
It's all a big mystery.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 08/09/22 12:48 PM ET
It was a typo... he always said he hated that Damn River... and it printed.
Vtskier1 • 08/09/22 04:56 PM ET

Nova Hokie 95 • 08/09/22 02:46 PM ET
