D4 Championship PBG

[David L. Craft, Ph.D.]

I don't want to seem like a "stick in the mud", but I don't think the paint
ball thing is going to happen.  As a club member at the host field, cleaning
up bottle rocket debris has not been an issue in the past.  I have to agree
with Verne, we just had our runway resealed a year or so ago and the
paintballs would create a mess.
Sorry,
David
