November 16-18 - James Island

Our annual trip to camp and see the lights at James Island County Park.  From Ronnie :

IT'S FAST APPROACHING!!!

We will be camping at the James Island County Park Friday Nov 16 - Sunday Nov. 18th
The cost is $28.63 per night per site BUT a site will accommodate 2 tents and up to 6 people, so 2 families could share a site.
Admission to the Holiday Festival of Lights is included in the camping fee. We will "hayride" around the lights loop Saturday night.
If we decide to do the climbing wall, it runs $12 per person. I will need to know ASAP if we want to climb to make reservations.
Last year we did a walking tour of Charleston that seemed to go over good. We may possibly do that again. We are looking into it.

This is a great trip! Kurush will be putting together a scrumptious meal plan... so sign up to go!

Please reply and let me know A)if you plan on attending, how many, B) if you would like to do the climbing wall and if so how many
C) if you would like to do the downtown Charleston walk. 

Please respond by November 1s 

October 20th - Paintball

The Villa's are hosting.


Paintball!
10am, Saturday morning at Triggertyme!

429 Koon Store Rd.
Columbia, SC

Some things to think about:
  • Loose clothing can help cushion against the paint balls
  • Baseball caps help keep paint out of your hair and protect your head
  • Tennis shoes or boots


Safety:
  • Avoid shooting somebody at close range.  
  • Call them out, if they run, then shoot them.
  • Avoid head shots if possible.  Self explanatory.

For anybody concerned, Triggertyme speed traps all guns to control speed and also limits rapid fire guns to keep the fields safer.  That being said, there is a good chance that y’all might go home with some bruises.  It would be a good idea to wear multiple light weight layers of clothes to add some padding.  Long sleeves and long pants are suggested, but not required.



For rentals, they are doing a straight $30 fee for gun, mask, unlimited air refills and 500 paintballs.  The rental is good for as long as we want to play. 
       

I’ll have a cooler and bottles of water and some chips.

Any questions?  I did not come up with something to do after paintball, like hike or camp.  The rest of our weekend was pretty full already.  Hope that is ok.

See you there!
