		For most of Hampton’s first 250 years, daily life was difficult for the members of this predominantly farming community, and the little leisure time available was spent mostly in such family activities as picnics or holiday celebrations, in church or civic organizations, or in such traditional male activities as gunning or fishing.
		For many people, the ability to grow a large squash or cabbage or to raise a chicken for entry at the county fair was as much a sport as they had the time or inclination to consider.
		Organized and individual sports as we know them today have formed an important aspect of the social life of Hampton residents only since just before the turn of the century.
