So I learned the past Saturday live-blogging and playing paintball/setting up a paintball field is much harder than it seems. Telling someone to nail down bunker while you try to rub your sweaty fingers across an iPhone screen doesn't look that good. So I decided to put down the phone for much of the invent and shed some sweat with the rest of the hardworking folks from Rockfish Church. And shed sweat we did.
I got to the field about 730 and things started pretty smoothly and not a cloud in the sky. The net went up and the bunkers got filled just like clock work. But as much air as we put into the bunkers field it seemed to be taken straight from our lungs. Typically me and the team run a few practice games prior to getting the kids playing but it we were exhausted and moving slow. Good thing is that we got a sunshade up for families and parents to watch.
People showed up and the games were great. The referees and volunteers did a great job of getting people in and off the field and most importantly making sure everyone had plenty to drink. Overall it was a good event not too many people standing around waiting to play but plenty of games got to played.
Next games should be on the 2 July 2011. Should be a big event.

Game Starts in 3.2,1...
The bunkers are loaded, the guns are fixed, the air tanks filled and the trailer hooked up and ready to roll to tomorrows paintball games at RockFish Church. The bunkers I purchased will be making their debut at tomorrows event mainly providing the largest snake the church as seen which should be interesting for our younger players. I can honestly say I'm pretty pumped about tomorrows event. Once a month seems like forever.
In any case, I'm going to be live blogging the event for those who can't make it our to RockFish Church or are a little leery of playing paintball at a church or playing paintball period. So keep your browser locked on the homepage and look for updates. Hope to see you out there!

Huff N' Puff
Another day of heat means another of filling the tanks and looks like I'm getting close for this weekend @ Rockfish Church. Really looking forward to playing with the folks at the church it's always a good time. Might be a hot one. So all that are coming make sure you bring plenty of the liquid clear stuff because you'll be loosing plenty of it playing. If you have any question about playing at Rockfish Church post it in the comments.As for my own little field adventure in the backyard, I got some stakes in the mail today which is good. Waiting on the bungees to tie down the bunkers but after that all systems should be a go after that. Still shooting for Sunday getting the net up. We'll see how sore I am after this Saturday. Or dehydrated. Or both...
