    Tri-City Paintball - St. Charles Illinois

    Linky

    Homepage

    It's about 30 mins for me. They open next Sunday the 16th. I'll probably go but don't think I can play. Maybe just take some pics with the digi-cam.

    I'm glad, 2nd indoor field next to CCP and it's closer then CCP for me.

      I'm going opening day the 16th with a bud. Gonna bring the digi-cam to take some pics so we'll see how it is. maybe play a few rounds or something.

      I'll letcha know how their prices are. At $10 entrance it's already cheaper then CCP

              Wish they said if it was field paint only or not, and what they charge for paint.

              I was thinking about going to CPX on Sunday, but I may go there instead to check it out. Depends on the cost of paint and air (I get into CPX for free, so entry is actualy more expensive).

                i'll be there this weekend if anyone else is going let me know. i will probably bring my new x-mag out to shoot some paint through it for the first time. it sure will be nice to have a field less than an hour away :)

                  Finally, something remotely closer for those of us in the West and N/W suburbs. And this will be good in a number of ways.

                  If and hopefully if, their prices are cheaper than CCP's, then that is a straight up advantage. Additionally, if this is the case, you think it might tend to make CCP lower their prices (specifically on paint) to compete.

                  This will be good all-around as it will promote competition.

                    I will definitely have to check it out, CCP does get very expensive very quickly. Although I think it will be the same distance for me...

                      Im stuck in centeral IL, Bloomington/Normal to be exact. We have about 2 fields 45 mins away, one I hear is terrible, and the other is outdoor only. And we all know how long the outdoor paintball season is around here :)

                      I wish I was closer to chi-town.

                        Guys, I was at the field about a week ago helping put up the nets. The field is bigger than CCP, although it is split in 1/2 for two 5 man fields. The center dividing net can be drawn open (like drapes) for a giant 10 man sized field. The field is ALL Ultimate Air bunkers and the floor is concrete covered with about 3-4" of a shreded shoe material. By far, this field will blow CCP off the map. The field IS FPO (draxxus) and they will have TEAM PRACTICES on Sunday morning like CCP from 8 or 9 till noon. They spent a lot of money putting this thing together and it's going to ROCK! I'd be there this weekend but I have arangements to be @ Huntington Beach. I only live 15 minutes fromt he place, so if anyone is intersted in going leave me a message.
                        They will stay open till midnight Thurs-Sat. YES!

                          Wow, it does sounds pretty darn nice! I like the flooring idea, I am sure it will be better than CCP and especially BFG. Any idea what prices are going to be 123?

                            Indoor field, indoor prices. Expect $100 a case on recball. MAYBE a little less on teams. Not sure though. $10 admission is what the local newspaper said.
