The Cancer Shootout Press Release and FAQs

 

Uniting Paintballers for Breast Cancer Research Foundation "The Cancer Shootout"

Welcome to our paintball charity event. Come out and have fun while raising much-needed funds for breast cancer research.  The Philadelphia Paintball Group and UnitedPaintballers.com will be hosting 2 charity event paintball games to raise awareness and money for breast cancer research in October 2008.  To view flyers for these events click here.

On October 11, 2008 and October 25, 2008, there will be charity paintball games to benefit breast cancer research.  The event on October 11th will be at Capt'n Carl's Paintball in Aston Pa, and the event on October 25th will be at Lehigh Valley South Paintball(LVP) in Hatfield, Pa.  Even if you cannot attend the events, donations to help out will be accepted via the website Unitedpaintballers.com.  At both events you will be able to play one game (woods ball), three games (speedball), half day, or full day. We will have an attack and defend game at LVP South as the same time as the charity event. This event will support the experienced scenario players while still providing games for first timer players supporting the charity.

Pricing for the day will be as follows:

We will have two types of paint. They are $50 & $55 per case. There is also paint available for $15 per bag (500 ct) . It will cost $20 to rent markers including air and mask. The field does offer additional clothing so as not to ruin anything you are already wearing.

"One Game Package"

For just one game, it is $15 with rental and one hopper full of paint. If after one game you decide you need more of a rush then you can always upgrade your package to the half-day plan for an additional $25. This package is great for introducing someone new to the sport.

"Shoot Out Package"

We will also be offering a three game tournament package. Three speedball games with rental marker, full hopper, and a bag of 500 balls for $30. You will be able to purchase an extra paint with this package. This package is great for settling rivalries. IE: The bosses VS staff, one staff VS another staff.

"Half Day Package"

This is for the player with limited time, it's $15 with your own equipment.

"Hard Core Player"

This is for the dedicated paintballers that want to play all day, it's $25 with your own equipment.

There will also be our shooting gallery. This will be for those who want to shoot at something and not be shot at. So please tell your friends and family and bring as many people as you can. Remember this is for charity.
