Keeping Outlaw locations clean.

Just thought I'd post this as a friendly reminder to clean up after yourselves after playing at an outlaw field. I just got back into PB after 12+ years off and so far I have only been out to Squaw peak ( 3 times). The 1st time I went ( July 5th) the staging area looked like a couple of garbage trucks had colided ther. Boxes, bags, bottles, cans, paper towels everywhere. I decided to come back the next week with some trash bags and left them siting on the counter when I left. DOH!
I remembered them this last weekend though but when I got there someone (thanks to whoever was responsible) had allready cleaned it up. So, I and the 1st timer I brought along took a walk around the play field and the fellow and his son that were there joined in and helped me clean up the field. I collected 4 large garbage bags of beer cans, wrappers, bags, etc. ( I did get a new squeegee out of it hehe, if you lost your squeegee at squaw peak let me know) OK, 1 whole bag of Beer cans were from someone that camped out there in the creek bed in the field and didnt have the decentcy to clean up after themselves but the other 3 bags were from all over the field.
Anyway I just thought I'd post this little reminder to leave with everything you brought in with you - balls and air 😉 .
There are only a few things that can ruin outlaw fields and get no tresspassing signs posted and thats mainly vandalism and trashing the area.
Thanks

Mess

The Oldman is right. The "Mess" that we leave is the reason that many public officals are opposed to letting paintball players use public property and it is also the reason that several fields have been shut down.

I know everyone says its not me its the other guy. Suggestion: Take an extra garbage bag to your favorite field and fill it next time you are out.

Thanks,
