Attention Michigan MCBers

swampy · 03-16-2008, 02:28 PM

Would there be any interest in a get together early this year? Say maybe around the middle of May. We could do this at my field in Prudenville. Low cost, nothing fancy, just a friendly gathering of like minded individuals. Simple games like Centerflag, Capture (maybe), Attack & Defend.

Bunkers & Banners Paintball

This is the link to my field page. Forgive the fact that it hasn't been updated in a while. That is on my list of things that need done.

i might be interested, but it would be close to a 3 hour drive for me.

Futureball is always fun, and there is a free play day April 12.

Wish I still lived in Michigan... I've heard good things about the field.

Keep me posted on dates. If it works I am in. Josh, we could work out some sort of car pooling.

This field is very nice and Swampy is great. He opened up for a few friends and me the end of this last season so that we could get some pump play in. He even joined in most of the games. I will try to convince most of them to join us as well.

Let me know when you have a firm date. My wife is due early May with our 2nd child, so toward the end of the month would give me a better chance of being able to come.

3 hours for me too...

Hell survivors would work for me.

It is 3 hours for me as well, or at least there about. I haven't mapped it from E.Lansing in a few months.

The problem with HSI is that you cannot do an all pump game unless you have a private party. With B&B, we would be in control of whatever we wanted to play. Also, we can play as many games as we want.

I love HSI for open play, but this would be great for a MCB get together.

Hey Swampthing,

I don't think I can make a mid May game because I have a friend flying into town around then. I will however see you for our yearly get together. I'll contact you when we nail down a date.

For those of you who don't know Swampthing he's a first class guy with a really fun and diverse field. A 3 hour drive is worth it.

Well, just checked back and was going to post about the three hour drive, but I was beat to it.

Mr. Big: Congrats on the new baby. Thanks for the good review. Had a blast playing with you guys and am hoping to see your crew again. Was actually looking at the third weekend in May so I can still take the holiday weekend off. Not sure whether to make it a Saturday or Sunday. Never said it had to be a pump only game, but if that is what you guys want, I would be happy to do it. I will keep you posted and the official announcment will be in the regional forum.

Shifty: See above reply for the possible date. Thank you for the kind words on my behalf. I appreciate it and I am glad that you feel it is worth the drive. I try to make it a good day for any body that shows up as you know. Hoping to get Palletstine up and fully running this spring. It looks like I will have the time finally. First on the list is that damned bridge over the trench.

Also considering a game in the late fall, probably first weekend in October. Was inspired by Mr.Big and his crew for this one. Am thinking Stock Class/ Mod-Stock only. Not sure what type of games to throw other than the standards, but will kick it around over the spring. Got the name though. How about Stocktoberfest. Not the most original, but I like the sound of it.
If it does happen, I may just have to figure out how to open the whole field up as one big field.

I would only be able to make it on a sunday, and thanks for the offer marc i might take you up on it.
