Sorry for the wait everyone. We had some unforeseen issues, but they have all been sorted out. It's official. The lease is signed and we are moving into the new building this weekend. Our new building is located near 10 mile and Mound and is a nice and open 10,000 sq/ft. It will be heated in the winter, and air conditioned in the summer. That's right, air conditioning.
Our planned reopening is December 2nd. We are going to bust our asses to try and make it happen. Keep an eye on this post for more updates. Pictures will be up this weekend.

Do you have any pics of the progress? Or pics of the building itself?

The field is now moved in which is a big undertaking in itself. Thankfully we had a couple of forklifts and semi truck to help us out. We have most of our staging area complete. We will be at the building tomorrow putting the field together and finishing off the staging area. This was my first look at the new building and I wanted to mention a few things I thought people would be happy to find out. We are on Mound road right off of I-696 and very easy to get to. The building has been freshly painted and inspected. Our bathroom has two urinals and three stalls and is pretty new (no more century old relic). The play field is shorter than the old building, but it is quite a bit wider. To give you an idea of scale, that is a semi truck with a full length trailer.  Beginnings of the staging area. People for scale.    |

Shut up and take my money!

We put in some serious hours and managed to finish the field. This field is pretty different than what we have done in the past. We are going to try it out and see how it goes. It's still the same CQB action, just a new take on the field layout. With the new layout we have several new game types planned and it should be pretty cool. It's done, and it's time to play.  |

I won't be able to make this weekend either. I'll be on a business trip in Chicago, worst timing ever. My team mates are all ready to text me to make sure I know what I'm missing (thanks guys).
Thanks for the welcome back everyone. We are happy to be back.

This field is awesome, just played there on the 3rd and let me tell you, some sweet CQB action with Elimination, CTF, Objectives, Pilot Down, and Alamo game types. Definitely worth going!
