Skirmish's Invasion of Normandy

Ok, first off I would like to say sorry for not posting for a LONG
time, second I was kinda rude about the Tippmann thing a while back,
lol. But this time I'm here to help and I got rid of some of the forum
e-coolness and more to the helpful wise paintballer guy. :)
Skirmish- Located in the Poccano Mountains in Pennsylvania (near Jim
Thorpe)
What is Skirmish's Invasion of Normandy? Formerly known as Skirmish's
D-Day it is a big reinactment held every year on July 9-10. The fighing
begins @ 12 Saturday and ends at 12 Sunday. It's sort of the
paintball/WW2 world's mecca. Every one is there from Reinactors that
dress up, to speedballers in their jerseys, to people who barely know
how to handle their paintball gun, to even people that have just now
decided to play.
Prices- $50 to get in, $100 a case (unless you buy 5, then its $85 a
case which is still extremely high for just Diablo :( ) $5 for 7 fills
of N2 or C02 or $10 for 15 fills. And that's about it, you can camp on
the actual field but I'm not sure if there is a fee or not. Then there
is a hotel fee if you don't sleep on the field's campground (around 300
yards from the action). Then there is gas and food, so it is kind of
expensive (I got around $315 to get in, food $, 2 cases, air, and hotel
room if you split it)
When is it? Again its from July 9 and 10 (THIS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY!!)
Is anyone going? (besides me?)I've gotten a hold of some REAL Marine
Digi-Camo and fake but still great Tru-Spec digi camo, which matches :)
