WHEREAS, established by Rodney Huber on 70 acres of his family's property in 1994, Hogback Mountain Paintball originally catered solely to paintball enthusiasts, but has grown to host birthday parties, corporate team-building exercises, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and other special events; and
WHEREAS, open year-round, Hogback Mountain Paintball has developed 15 fields, including areas dedicated to speedball, woodsball, and large-scale scenario games; and

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Rodney Huber of Hogback Mountain Paintball as an expression of the General Assembly's admiration for its contributions to agritourism in Northern Virginia.
