A wikipedia entry should be created for this with a brief description of how the idea started and who started it. Add website links and connect it to other paintball related material. Then update as the ball rolls. Anyone familiar with creating wikipedia entries?

I posted "How do we reach woodball players in MN?

The Minnesota area has a estimated 900+ woodsball players that own their own guns and play 5 or more times a year.

Most of these players are not on a team and just play with friends.

This is a big part of Minnesota paintball and a group we want to reach.

Any ideas how how to reach these type of players?

Nate replied go play paint ball day! we advertise on the radio and or TV because not all the players have computers or access to computers, all the Fields charge less if you bring some one who has never played at the field before try to make it a big movement like go skateboard day is for the skater kids. it seems to work very well for them i have never seen so many skaters out in one place before, even try to incorporate in the spring big game some how. it would be very nice if we could get all the fields in the state behind it.

So yes Nate came up with the idea for "Go Play Paintball Day in MN" I still think that is a great idea. That can be done with WPD or anotherr day. You can never have to many events.

More events means more reasons to come out and get to play paintball.

I'm all for it.

And more targets I mean players.
