| Ok so we now have to decide what we want to do in place of DMS's game in May. Most of us had it scheduled off from work, and LCT is coming out here so we need an alternative place to play now for the weekend.
I would still love to go camp someplace, we don't have to play where we camp if we decide to go to a field, but I think all of us look forward to the bull shitting and fun we have at camp as much as we do the game.
So while we cry over BftB being canceled, lets hear some ideas of what to do that weekend instead.
LCT, Wego and I briefly talked yesterday and thought camping in CO Springs area and playing at Color Splash for the weekend might be fun, they have a huge field.
Let the ideas flow, I've posted this in a non secure area to hopefully catch some friends of Nemesis's attention and see what they are doing. | |

| Maybe a day/weekend at dynamics field? They've stepped it up quite a bit and i'm sure everybody would have some fun. | |

Agreed, i dont drive that far to just play paintball. Its all about the whole experience, the camping, the BS'ing, the hanging out with the team and friends of the team and the paintball. I would love to still come out and go camping and play some paintball, maybe even get some other teams to meet up with us and do the same. I think it would be rather cool to take over a field like color splash for the weekend while having some good old fashion camping fun. Just my .02 | |

| Color Splash: $10.00 entry and all day air. Bring your own paint.
Dynamic: $15.00 entry, $5.00 all day air, $65 case-field paint only. Bring Your Own Paint Sunday Special: $25 entry and all day air, paint will be tested.

| I think Color splash at that price and being up in CO springs where we can find a camp site close enough to travel to and back from is better suited for a weekend play. Dynamic is in the mid of Aurora so it would be better off for a one day play.
Just my .02 | |

It's only 13 miles from Color Splash

| I'm still for Color splash, Pueblo isn't that much farther from CO Springs.
We might get invited to come play at the Hole that weekend too, if so I say the Hole for the day they do it at, and Color Splash for the other day.
I'll try and find out if Rowlf is going to play at the Hole that weekend for Hooligans BP. | |

| The reservoir is a good place to camp, you wanna reserve out pretty far thou when it comes to summer weekends. But there is great fishing areas and lots of room in te lake to go boating if you want, especially scence the lake is unusally high theis year.
the juniper breaks and arkanses campgrounds are nice, but i belibe the juniper breaks one is closed atm, dont know what the situation will be during may.
Overall though its a nice place, have camped there many times with family and friends, and would love to camp out there with you all in may if thats what you decide.
EDIT:
Just found this in the state parks site under winter camping
Juniper Breaks and Northern Plains Campgrounds will be closed to ALL access (camping, vehicular and pedestrian) from January 3 to May 1, 2011 due to construction activities. Traditionally, there are sites in these campgrounds open for winter camping. They are expected to be open for 2012 winter camping.
So most of the park should be open by may 1st | |

| Aliens is later in the year, I would be willing to go if DMS cannot get land to run the rest of the games this year. I am all for camping atthe site listed above in May. | |

| On the link it lists the Northern Planes campground is good for group campgrounds, they have some good pics. Site M # 304 - 306 look good. They have some trees around them for wind blockage, and in site of the lake as well as hookups for the winibago.
I think we need to make some decisions pretty quickly if we are going to set this up and get some sites reserved. I believe we will be calling everybody this weekend and getting a solid head count.

Generally Aliens is in September... I know, because I've been trying to convince Rowlf to make our game a different week (few weeks between) so we can make this game. | |

| Not to be rude and all but, people already have time off for the weekend of May 14-15 (not everyone has such an easy time changing their days off), LCT is coming up the weekend of May 14-15, D-Day cost a whole hell of a lot more than the weekend of May 14-15, not everyone has the ability to make a D-Day trip.

| D-day for sure is not going to happen for me i cant go a week without pay, plus trying to get a full week off is damn near impossible for me. But i will try to take as many 4 day weekends i can to get out there to play.
I am down for what ever we decide to do that weekend, the hole sounds good, color splash sounds good, camping sounds great. But we need to decide soon so we can reserve a place to camp. | |

| I say we book the campsite Bronx posted, using the money from registration. we can find out about the hole, and decide if we are going to colorsplash or there later. For now reserving the camp site is the most important thing.
Bronx I say get the money back from Rowlf for registration, if its going to take a little time to get back then we should use the money from team dues temporarily until the money comes back and pay the team back when it does. We can figure out how many sites we need on Sunday when your over here.
We should start by getting a definite head count for the weekend so we know how many sites we are going to need to reserve. | |
