This is a BB meeting you will NOT WANT TO MISS!!

Come and meet Dave and thank him, for helping to keep paintball in WI and the surrounding states going strong. (See below)
I (Dave) was in Wisconsin in 2001, back when the DNR tried to ban paintball from being played on all public land, saying that balls were toxic and posed threats to cattle. Along with Jessica Sparks, Dan Reeves, a gent from Nelson, and a lot of other good people, I testified on pball's behalf and we got the prohibition shot down with a unanimous vote; I've been a fan of WI paintball ever since!
