Do you have any updated conditions on the roads at splat tag? Are they ******?
This is not a invite only game anymore.

I'm in Maplewood as well, if you still need a ride, let me know. I can give you a ride. It might be a tight fit since I have a truck (3 seater), and I'm giving a buddy of mine a ride too. Though you're more than welcome to hitch a ride with us if needed.
I'll see whats up. Do you know where CC Military is in Maplewood?

Hmm, if I can catch a ride with someone I'll prolly be down for playing. My car I know can't make it back there, I can meet most anywhere for it.

If you don't have truck, jeep, or something like that I'd recommend car pooling.

maybe a meet in hudson for people who dont have trucks and ride in with people who do?
if you are doing that idea cutstep i recommend the dennys to meet at. Its where the Militia meets prior to carpooling to splat tag. Its shiny haha.
Sounds good Drachen, if stuff comes up i'll pm you. CC would be a great place to meet and then take off from. Thanks for the help btw!

Anyone got some space in their truck that I could catch a ride with?
I'd be really grateful for it!

Anyone remember who had the V plow a couple years ago for the 2007 game? From what the National Weather Service is saying, we may need it again.:character0080:

6-8 inches and it's not supposed to warm up!:character0080:
I'll be there no matter how bad it is.

its is supposed to snow 10" tomorrow, I can almost guarantee that it wont melt soon enough for sun, snow on top of ice could make for a fun drive up the hill.
sounds like some good winter fun :) Rogue do you plan on going? The topic at MMPT is dead so I assumed I was stuck with sage ;)

Thanks cutstep, but it looks like one of our cadets is bringing the 4wd. We should be good to go.
I'm probably going with drachen up there, I think he said he had 4wd. I'll notify him on the dennys meet. Times?

Break some trail too, would ya? :D
We try breaking trails for the Dec. 28 game. But the sun just turned everything we did into ice.
We may go out early Sunday or late Saturday and try it again.
sounds good! As long as we can get back there its fine with me, i'm sure the ice will all melt during april.
Deep!
Drove out to the field today and we got a LOT of snow!! I would say a good 8".
I am having the driveway plowed! Not sure on the parking area.
Also going to try and start up the Troop Truck and see if we can drive people back but I not sure if she will start after sitting all winter.
We will be back out there Saturday and may try to groom some of the trails but the snow may be deeper then my ATV's tires.
HP Air will be up are running.

Is Brian going to remember the coffee pot this time?:character0080:
Everyone carpooling at Denny's, can we set a time now? I was thinking around 11 since the games start at noon.

leave from Dennys at 11 or meet to get some grub at 11.
I thought I saw something about meeting at 9:30.

Bubba, I & a couple of others should be at Denney's about 10:15 - 10:30 I believe.

Ill be at Denny's around 10:00, I want to get to te field at about 10:30 or so .... I like to take my time and get ready ... and get used to the cold :character0080:
You might get there before us! :)
okay, me and columbo will be at dennys around 10-ish. I'll tell drachen that too.
Drive way is now plowed but it is narrow.
Also plowed a small parking area.
Truck did not start so that out.
Remember to bring your own tools paper towel and so on.
Splat Tag is not fully open so very limited out there.
We will have HP Air and Winter paintballs that about it.
