The QUESTION IS WHY?

Thanks Marvin Hill, for coming out to take away the TWO vandalized Port-A-Potties out at the paintball field on Revilla Road.   WHY? when a well-meaning non-profit like Ketchikan Youth Initiatives places port-a-potties at the paintball field for ANYONE to use that comes to the paintball field or drives on to other beautiful recreational areas,  DOES SOMEONE BREAK THEM APART SO THEY ARE UNUSABLE?

Thursday we went out with more donated chips for the field and put the two most recent examples of THIS MEANINGLESS VANDALISM  on the Wildcatter’s dump truck to take them to the landfill, along with the remnants of burned tires and cable reels, old car parts and more

IF YOU SEE SOMEONE DESTROYING OUR PROPERTY WILL YOU PLEASE TELL THEMTO THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE SPOILING FOR OTHERS, ESPECIALLY OUR KIDS! Thank you.

For you paintball enthusiasts, we are gearing up for the 2013 season…with clinics to train referees, field manager and marketing manager.  Anyone age 12 and up is welcomed.  A great venue for dads (or moms) and kids or friends.  Companies, form up your teams!  Families, plan your birthday parties (an alternative for paintball is water balloons for little ones.)  The field is on Revilla Road, 4.2 miles East of Ward Cove. Look for the headquarters and tower.  The field is not set up yet.  This is a community-based, non-profit activity to give us one more, healthy, outdoor activity.  Call 617-5990 to get involved.
