Materials Famous Olympians activity sheet pencils Directions If the names of famous Olympians were placed end to end, they could probably circle the globe many times. This activity provides an introduction to a few who earned the gold. Students may wish to read to find out more about them. It is hoped that they will continue their search to become acquainted with other equally famous Olympic Games stars. U.S. Olympic Games Stars In Athletics (track and field) events, the name of Jesse Owens, the sharecropper's son from Alabama, always tops the list of favorite Olympians. His four gold medals won at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games discredited Hitler's notion of German superiority over other races. In 1984, another track sensation by the name of Carl Lewis matched Jesse Owens' performance of 28 years before and went on to excel in the 1988, 1992, and 1996 Games. Babe Didrikson was the track star of the 1932 Olympic Games, capturing a gold medal for the U.S. in the javelin throw and another in the 800-meter hurdles. She went on to become a golf star and is still considered one of the most versatile female athletes.

The PD-9 Region includes Culpeper, Madison, Orange, Fauquier, and Rappahannock Counties. Administrators ONLY CIVIL WAR HISTORY Cedar Mountain During Civil War A new threat to the Confederacy lurked in Northern Virginia in the summer of 1862. The Lincoln Administration turned to Major General John Pope. Pope forged an army out of several union commands embarrassed by Jackson in the Valley and christened his new fighting force the Army of Virginia. Vexed by Pope's move on Culpeper Courthouse, Robert E. Lee quickly dispatched Jackson to Gordonsville with the grave order: "I want Pope to be suppressed." Outnumbered by Pope's forces, Jackson looked for an opportunity to strike. Pope unwittingly divided his army along the Rapidan River. Jackson then advanced hoping to isolate a portion of Pope's army near Culpeper. Pressing forward on August 9, 1862, Jackson's troops encountered Union cavalry and artillery blocking the road near Cedar Run. Confederate Brigadier General Jubal A. Early hastily formed a line of infantry and artillery on the shoulder of Cedar (or Slaughter's) Mountain. Confederate artillery firing from the mountain as well as from a small wooded knoll known afterward as the Cedars dueled with Union artillery posted on the Mitchell Station Road.
