4th of July
Without a doubt, the Number One community event in Culpeper County is the Independence Day Celebration. Coordinated by volunteers and dependent upon financial support from Town, County, local businesses and citizens, the annual Fourth of July activities are provided at little or no cost to the public. Thousands of people gather on the downtown streets of Culpeper for the parade, antique car show, sporting events, patriotic commemorations, children's amusements, food, and live music - with a grand finale of professionally produced FIREWORKS. RE/MAX® Crossroads wouldn't miss the opportunity to contribute both money and time to this event because it offers such a strong sense of community spirit.

Soap Box Derby (June)
A very special event to Culpeper is the Soap Box Derby. RE/MAX® Crossroads signed on as a sponsor because this is a family, business and community event designed especially for youth and encourages family adult-youth activities through the construction of gravity race cars. First organized in 1934 in Akron, Ohio, the Derby has expanded throughout America as a national youth sport competition and has fielded more than a million entrants over the years. Our "team" RE/MAX® racing car is a huge success for all involved in its creation, wheater or not a recipient of the checkered flag. We look forward to participating every year.

Farm Tour (October)
Agriculture, a vital part of the economy of Culpeper, helps us maintain a balance between our rural nature and the residential growth we're experiencing. That's why the first weekend in October has been designated for tours of farms, nurseries, vineyards and other agriculture related businesses which have invited the public to visit their operations. These tours offer the chance to take part in milking, feeding, horse or dog training, hay rides, pumpkin carving, wine tastings and the like. RE/MAX® Crossroads appreciates its rural surroundings and proudly promotes our farming-related entities.

Christmas Tour of Homes (December)
The residents of Culpeper's South East Street organized the South East Neighborhood Watch (SENW) and have hosted the Christmas Tour of Homes since 1993 as a way to share the beauty and history of their homes. Joined by homeowners from adjacent streets, the Tour has become so successful that SENW awards a 4-year scholarship to a Culpeper high school student. A portion of the proceeds allows the SENW to continue its work on neighborhood projects to keep the historic streets as beautiful and alive as they are today. RE/MAX® Crossroads is proud to support the work of local groups like SENW that care about their neighborhoods.
