AO VA day, you pick time and place VOTE

Also does PBA have any more added fields besides their one good hyperball field? I havent been there in years.

PBA has 7 Total fields:
2 5-man Ultimate air Fields
2 5-man Hyperball Fields
The Muddy Gras X-ball Field
Woodscourse
And Town field.

All the fields are surrounded with netting. There are gravel walkways between each field with about 4 sets of bleachers. PBA Has changed a lot since the last time a lot of you have played there.

Is PBA still field paint only, Splatt is too right?

PBA is still field paint only, and Splatbrothers is BYOP on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month. For practice days..

Lets go to PBA people. Richmond area=central va=more fair for extremities of Va drivers.
Ill drive you No.Va guys since you all love to b*tch and whine. Its a good change, explore people...compare and contrast. Richmond folk, what can I do to help set that up?

Roanoke area folk: What are the chances of you guys comin out that way?

Besides, you must follow the little ho with the sexy Karta Emag. You know you want to fondle it, its got a CCM norise and fireblade now

Roanoke area folk: What are the chances of you guys comin out that way?

100% for me. If Jwalker can come he could shuttle 2 people. He's on vacation right now so I'll have to make these decisions for him.

If anyone needs lodging if my parents are okay with it we could let 2-3 people stay in our Richmond house. I'll come in the night before and can carpool a couple people to Splat Bros. or wherever we play. Actually, even if we don't play in Richmond I'll go out there since it is in fact a central location which means anywhere in the state we play would be an easy drive. Doesn't that work out well?

It would be nice if we could get a idea of how many people are coming and the date this even is going to take place. It would be best if you PM'd Me/Caveman with the information. Probably be better to PM Caveman since he has helped organized an AO-VA Day before.

Hey guys,

I few people have asked me to look into a few things in looking at Pev for the AO event. As of right now I have talked to my team to do the reffing duties, that gives up 13 or so people to ref. I still have to talk to pev about using the air ball fields for a mini 3 man tourny, and I am guessing that there will also be a group playing in the woods as well.

Typically general field fees would be $15 a person, and BYOP, but considering we would be using the air fields that would cut his normal paying cutomers off from using them so that charge my change depending on what I can work out and how many peope wer are talking about doing this.

While we dont have bleachers YET, all the tournament fields are netted, there is amble parking and staging and if I CAN manage it we will have our own air truck for all day fills but again thats going to depend on how things work out with Pev.

But I need to get a good idea what kind of numbers of people we are talking about here. I mean it its 20 people, thats a privet group and we dont need to both with my team reffing, if its 70+ then its more of a worry.

Let me know,

Rob,

Thank you for taking the time and effort to investigate the issue on this scale.



Based on Rob's generous offer, I offer my thoughts on this development (for the $.02 they are worth). As Rob has looked into planning an event at Pev's for a group even as large as 70, it should be noted that there will need to be a lot more interest/advertising for an event to reach that size.

This is where everyone has to ask themselves, do you want this to be a small, more local thing - or are we trying to get AO members from states much farther away? And then the advertising, publicity can be geared as appropriate.

i am willing to go to pevs if we can get a large enough crowd and if the eastern and central guys are also willing to go.

now if pev trys to charge us more i think that is kinda f'ed up, but if it is only 20 and we have our own private air ball field i'm all for that.

does 15 cover all day air with pev's now? i know at their old field you had to pay for each air fill.

i'd be willing to bet PBA would give us our own air ball field too if we can get a good size crowd. Same goes for splatbros.



should i start a new thread/poll with just PEV"S and either Splat Bros/PBA? since those are the most voted for?



as for a date, i am thinking that July 18th is the earliest i'd be available

everyone, post whether you want saturday or sunday

i emailed Don from Splatbros and here is what he had to say:

So what yall think?

[Xyxyll]

Pevs and Skyline are too far north for me. They may be the best fields in the state, but they are too unconvenient. I say Splatbrothers or Action Town Sports (A little biased for ATS because it's semi-local).

[flyinasian016]

I just played at Skyline yesterday, and i refuse to play there. . the field setup is nice, but the terrain is horrible, i f'ed up my entire knee, and my enire right arm from sliding on the gravel. Ill play at any field except for skyline.

Caveman, if this event does end up at pevs can i get a ride? Also, can you PM me the email you sent to Don and i will reword it and send it to Rey and see what PBA can do for us.
