I may have found us a good deal for skydiving. One of Erin's employee's is a instructor, Erin said she will charge me $99. I'm waiting to hear if that price will also be good for a group of people. I'll keep you posted. I'll also start asking if anyone wants to go paintballing (pretty sure that's not a word).

I think paintballing counts as a word, thats what I use to ask if people want to go so it must be a word

I have asked a couple friends and they seem interested, although not confirmed yet.

So I tried to get that Saturday off. But for some reason two people can't take the same day off and someone already has. Including the following week/weekend. Lame. That saturday was jam packed with stuff to do. Paintball, use my Ozzfest tickets, could've gone fishing. =/
Know anywhere that's hiring with good pay, benefits, and weekends off? Heh.

Hopefully you'll make it to another meet.
For the people who are going, we may need to just walk in and play with whoever else is there.
The cost would breakdown will be:
$25 per person
$10 for rental equipment (gun, loader, co2 tank, mask & goggles)
$40 for 2000 paintballs. We can probably just split a case or two and buy more as we need them throughout the day.

I updated the first post with the new price and the 4 people on the list. I also posted on RC3 to see if we can get a few more people. I have a couple friends that will probably go also. More targets = more fun

Everytime I go, I use about 2 cases (4000). Too bad I already went a couple weekeneds ago and my next planned trip was the weekend after that on aug 19th. I'm setting up a private game for that if anyone's interested.=)
Who plans on driving their rx8 or rx7 to the paintball park??? That would be awesome, but I wouldn't recommend it as the roads at badlandz are unpaved. haha....they used to be muuuuuch worse. They atleast put gravel on most of it now. There's also one section that's very bumpy and steep.

you guys suck.. i wanna go! damn 700 mile drive to that field!
we should organize one of these in the gulf region.. no one would want to play w/me tho..
Oh well..
I'd shoot 4000 rounds if I played woods ball.. too many damn things in the way.. I prefer speedball/hyperball/sup-air.. depending on what position I play there, i'll shoot between 200 and 1000 rounds in a single 5 minute game.

I hate to say this but there is a slight chance I might not make it. As most you of you know Erin is pregnant. Thus we are moving to a bigger place. The moving starts on the 6th and must be done by the 12th. I'm hoping to get most of it done by Sat. so I can come. Stll gives me Sunday to do some last minute stuff.

Be glad there's gravel especially if there even a hint of rain. Without the gravel, you'd just be spinning your wheels the whole time not going anywere! The gravel's not bad if you drive slow, but only the steep bumpy part (which used to be much steeper) should be a cause for concern. These are just situations when I bust out the minivan though...

I will be out there around 7:45. I am not sure how parking is set up, but I will be in my 8 so it shouldn't be too hard to find me.
We didn't have many people say they would go, so for those that did, if you decide you don't want to go for some reason please let me know, post or pm me before saturday morning, so that I am not waiting in the parking lot for people that aren't going to show up.
Currently it isn't supposed to rain on Saturday, but the temperature is supposed to be around 90.
