ARC Simple IRA Plan Sponsor Site Epsilon Eliminator Paintball:
Shooting where your target shoots back!

There has been some talk on the OX mailing list about getting together a paintball game. Friendly Fire in Upton  is minutes away from WPI.  They provide all the equipment you need, and if you bring a group of over 20 players you can get your own private field.

I am trying to judge interest in putting together an event. Tentative date is TBD, depending on interest.  Cost looks to be around $70, depending on ammo consumption.

Feedback:

I'm looking to get some comments from interested brothers. Based on your input we'll either take the idea further or shelve it for another time. We're looking for answers to these questions, but feel free to add additional comments too:

  • Are you interested?
  • Should this be EBA only, or should we include the actives and improve our relations with the house?
  • If we include the actives, should we pick up some of the tab?
  • Should we help them incorporate this as a rush event?
  • How should we split up the teams? Should we break up by: Age (actives vs alumni), Major (kill the Civils), or Class ('83 will kick your ass!)? Should we allow Team Dinga to challenge all comers?
  • What format game(s) should we play? Capture the flag, deathmatch, others?
  • Can you help to organize this?
  • Post comments here to share with other visitors to this page.

    I'm ready for some paintball.  I think we should gang up on the Civils.  I want
    to see MadDog eat paint!

    Paintball is a great idea.  Bring it on.  Civils can take you all on. 
     We used to go to Canobie Paintball as a house in Windham, NH 
    (near Canobie lake park - go figure).  It is a great place.  If your interested,
     I can get you some information.

    I would definitely go and would get my era brothers to go too.
    Let me know when and where and I'll paint.

    I say we make it Civils vs Gweeps.  Winners get a night at Jillian's
    in Boston on the Losers.  Can you step up to the plate?

    I'm up for some paintball!  I think we should invite the actives along too and
    even kick in a little extra to make it more affordable for them. Breen 94
