A game of "simon says" to win a new paintball marker:


A paintball eating contest to win a new paintball marker pistol:


"Top Gun" contest to win a new paintball marker:

everyone used the same marker pistols; lever-action, one shot in the breech - non semi, no loaders carry 10 balls in a tube. truly a game of skill and not who has the "best" equipment.

and finally a quoted post from our CPPA forums about a great God-glorifying event:

Yes there are some times you say to someone "you saved my life" and then there is today. Where if 2 of our members and the hand of God had not been in play a life would have been lost at the field today. Here is the story as I understand it.

Today at the field a man after leaving the field laid down on one of the benches and had a heart attack. He fell from his bench and landed face first on the rocky ground and cut open his head. The man's friend's son was there, a police officer and trained EMT he had knowledge but no equipment.

He started by calling for help then began first aid on the man. When the refs called on the raido to Sean (splatterpark) for "HELP ASAP!" it just so happens Josh (jds753) was standing there about to start chatting with Sean so when Sean took off so did Josh. Not long after Matt (FireEMSisLife) came to the scene and began to give assistance.

Then Matt remembered he had a fully stocked EMS "Jump Bag" in his car becasue his ambulance was acting up so he took it out and put it in his car so the ambulance could be serviced. Now Josh and Matt are good friends and planned on coming up to the gathering in Josh's vehicle which this morning was acting up and needed service so they had to bring Matt's car that just happened to have the only thing that could save this mans life.

It took the local ambulance well over 10 minuets to get to the field , 9 minuets more than it took Josh and Matt to be there with Oxygen and all the rest of the gear they needed to help this man. Oh by the way Josh's truck isn't broke, the mechanic only found that his breaks were worn but the problem they heard was NOT breaks.

God is good and witnessing his plans unfolding thru his people is humbling and awesome.
