Thanks to everyone who braved the heat to come out and play yesterday at Hogback! I apologize for not having any pics to share with everyone - I’ll make sure to have some after next game.

Thanks also to all the new folks, whether they were new to paintball or new to our group, for coming out. Ten out of the fourteen of us were new to our monthly game so it was great to see so many new faces! Make sure to check the sidebar for our August “Honorable Mentions.”

Regarding this being one of our last games for the season…looks like we might just scrap that idea and continue playing every month until we can’t get enough people to play. We’re also contemplating trying out a night game in October (around Halloween time, of course), if anyone is interested in that.

Stay tuned for September dates, and a few announcements on local big-games going on this fall!

…until our August game at Hogback Mountain in Leesburg!  A couple things to consider:

• It’s supposed to be 97 degrees at the high.  Keep that in mind!
• Hydrate before and either bring a camelback or bottles of water with you or some extra bucks to buy water there.
• Sunscreen!
• Tick spray - finding those later isn’t fun!
• Click here to download and sign the waiver for Hogback.  (You can do this at the field, but signing now will save you time checking in.)  Remember:  If you are under the age of 18, a parent or guardian must sign for you.  (And no, we aren’t going to be your parent or your guardian.) 

Scattered thunderstorms have been announced for Saturday - we are playing, rain or shine. 

As always, check back to our site the day before, or the morning of, the game to see if there are any last minute updates.  And, if you have any questions, just let us know!

See everyone in a few days!
