Can we still send ideas to be considered? Driving to Skyline for a practice may be a bit excessive, we may want to go when they have a scenario or larger event. Also, Pev's is another choice place to go.

Sure, ideas will be considered. We haven't seen any scheduled scenarios yet for either Skyline or the Swamp, so that is why we just figured on checking them out.
Pev's is 30 miles outside of DC towards the west past Dulles airport. Their fields look very cool. 48 acres of playing fields.

Tank and I went to Pav's back in November for a visit. It was nice but the place was lax on safety. We were able to walk up to the urban field on the hill, not knowing that the field was live, and masks were required. There is NO netting between the urban field and the lower speedball areas and picnic tables. Balls can fly over the ridge into the seating area.
Other than that, the parking was pretty good, picnic tables around the multiple speed ball arenas were plentifull. There is an observation deck to view speedball games. There were no Ref's at the chrono insertion for the lower urban field, but that may have been due to the distance from the chrono to the field itself, but the two people we saw enter both set off the alarm and walked in anyway.
But, Pev's is the Big Man on Campus in Virginia. It is probably the best known Easy Coast venue so a visit would be prudent.

Going to The Swamp in Gloucester this Saturday. The park opens at 11 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m. Come on out and let's do work!

Hey guys, in March we have on the schedule the event at Splat for the 12th. But I think I had heard some talk about going to either Fox or the Swamp. The Swamp has a scenario, Battle of Yorktown, on the 26th that is being put on by one of the Seniors from Gloucester High School. It may be fun to go and support him and that park. Can we also update the schedule to reflect the practice at the Swamp on the 28th of May to be for the Sands of Time Scenario, not practice.

I have updated the calendar to reflect the Sands of Time scenario at the Swamp on May 28. I think we should definitely plan at least one trip to the Swamp before then to get the field layout down and plan. I am fine with the March 26th idea.

The schedule has been updated to reflect the Swamp scenarion on March 26 and also Guns and Hoses at Fox on April 30th. Valken will be present for the game at Fox on April 30th, so we should all plan to be there to show off our gear to our new sponsor!
