May 20th Results

Here's Some results and Pics from our May 20th Event...



Morning Round Robin Play:
Yellow Team Dominated...Congratulations.

Full-Field Double Flag:
1st Game: Blue team sent a large force up the west tape line, and quickly overwhelmed a smaller, orange resistance.
Orange made an attempt on Blue's flag station from the Northeast corner, but Blue's defense held. The Blue attacking force returned with the flag. Game over...Blue Victory.

2nd Game: Orange's Turn. A change of tactics sent 13 of the team's 14 players up the east tape line. This large orange push proved to be too much for blue's defense as players were eliminated one or two at a time. Victory: Orange.

The day's highlight was a classic "protect the President" scenario. B.P. volunteered to wear the "target vest." 8 players disappeared into the woods as the sniper force. 18 good men were responsible to safely transport our man to three different flag stations and back to base.

The play was intense, especially at flag stations near the sniper's regeneration point. After numerous fire-fights, many eliminations and re-entries on both sides, K.D., (in typical fashion) moved stealthily into the protector's circle an eliminated his target moments before enduring a barrage of paint. Game over: Victory to the Snipers.

A real good time had by all.

Here's some pics...



L.M. Chonys out at 299 F.P.S.



Cpl. Kranny does a Great Job as Supply Officer



B.B.'s canopy provides a comfortable camp for his Orange team.



TCP events always open with prayer. We enjoy a safe and fun day of competition.



A rare shot of C. Havoc, sans mask. Everyone agrees that he looks best out of focus.



S.S., R.P. and Blue Team Captain, Major "Pain" Benson (he was...)



The Major's Daughter, on the other hand, was a perfect little lady, and suffered the long day like a paintball trooper. (Why does that line bring vague recollection of a song by Paul McCartney and Wings? The Col. is dating himself again.)



Speaking of suffering, M.R. plays through an illness and still looks good at days end.

Next Event: Sunday, June 4th, 2-6 pm


See you there...

Game On: Saturday

1st Things 1st...
Next Game:
This Saturday, May 20
10am-4pm
Kerr Valley





All Guys are welcome. (Minors need permission from parents)

2nd Order of Business:




Two of our three missing CO2 Tanks are accounted for. That leaves one still out there. Please check your gear and bring it on Saturday. Thanks.

3rd:



If you would like to give paintball a try, we have rental gear available for a nominal fee.

Please note that we will begin charging a flat rental fee of $5 for each club gun.

(Plus $5 per CO2 Tank used)
This fee also includes the mask if you need it. The markers will be available on a first come-first serve basis, and your fee reserves your marker.

We need to do this for the following reasons...

A. To cut down on the number of times someone "reserves" a free marker, and then doesn't show up, causing us to turn someone else down.
B. To help defray the cost of maintaining the markers. (As high as $25 per Marker per season for springs, O-rings, etc.)
C. To encourage regular players to invest in their own personal equipment over time, freeing up the rental gear for more and more 1st timers.

Thanks for your understanding. If you would like to join us for a game, and would like to rent some gear, e-mail Colonel Havoc, or give us a call at 218-969-9917,

4th:



We always encourage paintballers to stay connected and play as much as healthy marriages and other commitments will allow. With that in mind,
check out a new spot in our links column. It's a "My Space" forum for local paintballers put together by one of our guests for the Grand Rapids Area...Enjoy.

See you Saturday.
