Sunday, June 26 - Paintball in the woods near Portland, OR
Let me know if you want to attend and I’ll send you an evite for the event.
THIS IS A NOOB-FRIENDLY EVENT! The point is to introduce people to the sport in short, casual rounds. If you have extra gear to loan out, please let me know so I can tell others who have been invited.
*************************
When? >>> Sunday, June 26 from ~10am until ~4pm. Come or go whenever you wish.
Where? >>> 45°36'50.2"N 123°21'12.3"W
45°36'50.2"N 123°21'12.3"W (if the link doesn’t work, paste the coordinates into Google Maps)
This is a natural field on public land that has not been built up. There’s great cover in the form of massive stumps and fallen trees.
***Note that there is NO cell service here!***
Who? >>> You! The game is open to adults and kids 10 and older. Let me know if you need to borrow gear so I can reserve it for you!
What are we doing? >>> Paintball in the woods! I have enough gear for 13 players and extra masks for a spectator or two. We play simple games with hoppers only (no extra pods) with markers set to semi-automatic or pump. If you want to bring your own or borrow a friend's gear, all the better - we can have a bigger group!
We will go through a safety talk, equipment orientation, and basic rules first. All markers are chronographed to shoot below 280fps. Then it's game time! Most rounds will last 10-20 minutes.
What should I bring? >>>
How much will it cost? >>>

What should I bring? >>>
- Clothes you don't mind getting dirty - darker colors are good, bright/light colors are easy to see. I have some camouflage jackets to loan out.
- Baseball hat or beanie to protect the top of your head - paintball masks don't cover there!
- Shoes for running on uneven ground in the woods
- Lots of water/gatorade - you'll need more than you think and there is no potable or running water here.
- Packed lunch
- Epi pen, medical stuff - if you're allergic to bee/wasp stings, poison oak, etc. I'm not a medical professional - PLAY AT YOUR OWN RISK
- Camping chair - there are no benches or tables at the site
- I will bring stuff for a hole-in-the-ground toilet and hand washing station. There aren't pit toilets here.
How much will it cost? >>>
- Borrowing gear (marker, tank, mask, hopper) from lhamilton1807 - Free!
- Air (actually CO2) - $5 for the day
- Paintballs - $15 for the day
- Bring your own gear, air, and paint - no charge. Just come out & play! (You still need to play by my rules though 😉)
