Where is EMR? What's the nearest Airport? And what dates is this going to be?

Does EMR have a website?

I take it this is official now?

Manike, If you need a practice game there I believe Tiwn Towers is the weekend after the long island game you are going to.

Their castle conquest games are awesome. From what I read I guess I have to assume Shattner isn't doing paintball again since Shattnerball was the Spplat charity game.

The Philly Airport is about 3 hrs away from EMR. Depending on how adventurous you are and how much you like to shower you can get a bunkhouse at EMR for free (50 dollar deposit) which we shared. But there's no guarantee you'll get a matress, so if you're investing to go from far away you'll probably want to make hotel/motel reservations.

Hi,

Philadelphia's airport is not the closest. YOu can fly into Scranton's and you will be alot closer. The ride will go from about 3 hours to about an hour.

Everyone else kinda answered your question manike.

Later,
Alan

Wow EMR is only about 3 1/2 hours from my house! woohoo I wonder if I can make it (might be working). I hope they get a good turnout though, but I suspect not. There hasent been much advertiseing or hype like there was last year.

We're still waiting to find out for sure. Although this news story over on his web site strongly implies that he will be at the 2003 Spplat charity game Weekend Warriors (http://www.williamshatner.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=102&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0)

Shatner has stated on the forum of his web site that he is planning to be at EMR for Spplat Attack 2003. The next question that I've heard is whether or not Paramount will allow the use of Star Trek again.

So is Tom Kaye thinking about facing off against Bill Shatner again even if it means giving up the guise of the Borg? ;)
