Out of their way
There is one team that is at each game,
which goes out of their way to help promote the game and spirit of paintball.
That team is Black Karma. According to
Mark Kimmel, of Black Karma:
“One of our team’s goals is to grow the
sport and to do that, we recognize that
we need to bring more people in to the
scenarios we play as well as make sure
they come back for the next one. To
make sure people get hooked and come
back for more, we thought we would
give folks a chance to try out higher end
markers from Planet Eclipse instead of
the rental markers they would normally
be playing with. For each scenario game,
we have been lending out our team Etha
to anyone that is new to the game. Anyday
one can take the gun out for a couple of
o’clock came very early for both
hours to see what its like to play with a
s. Each side discovered that their
quality marker! They have loved it! We
porary bridges were washed away

had to be purchased again from the we decided to take it to the next level
s black market. The allies started
and also loan out our brand new team
day off pushing hard and making the Etek 4 as well!! For anywhere we play,
mans work for each mission and each please feel free to stop by our campsite
