Airsoft is Almost Here!
Hello players (and parents)!
It’s time for our annual email spam. Hopefully it’s not actually in your spam folder, because we have lots of stuff to share with you.
SAASMaine.com
Did you know we have a website (yes, I know you are currently on it… lol)? It’s pretty fantastic! No, really. Bear spent a LOT of time on the website, so please bookmark it and use it a lot.
Our website serves as a single point to share information. Not only does it link all our social media (which all hate airsoft), but also lists all our games and special events for the upcoming season, field rules, field map and waiver that you can print out at home, and our blog.
The blog is super important. Some of the entries get long-winded, but it’s important to us that we share with you all the information that we have.
Hit up the site at SAASMaine.com.
Games and Events
As always, we will be holding games every Sunday from May 26 to October 27, with the exception of July 28, which is the statewide Open Farm Day, and the weekend of October 12-13, which is Op: Damage Control IV. The schedule for regular gamedays hasn’t changed:
0800 – “Gates open”
0900 – Check-in begins
0930 – Check-in closes (anyone not here by 930 will not be allowed to play)
1000 – Safety and mission briefing
1100 – Startex
1500 – Endex
We are still going to feed players as usual, but this year will be asking folks to toss a couple bucks into the pot to help us defray the cost of food and soda. Bear and Morsel have been paying for all that food completely out of pocket.. not from field fees, not from the farm, but out of their personal bank account. So any help there will be appreciated.
Events! Last year we started “Airsoft for Veterans” which is a free day of airsoft and rental (as needed) for a veteran and a +1. This year, we are opening this up to the public to help beef up the numbers. Airsoft for Veterans will take place the first Saturday of each month, Starting June 1 to October 5. Please note, the schedule is different from regular games:
1100 – “Gates Open” and check-in begins.
1130 – Safety and mission briefing
1200 – Startex
1600 – Endex
We will have other special events every month as well. Keep an eye on the schedule!
The Bunker
Towards the end of last season, we were able to source a 33′ long “travel trailer” camper thing, as it was generously donated by Chelsie of Lucky Horse Farms in Fort Fairfield. It has been gutted and in the process of being rebuilt and it serves as our office/store room/retail shop. There is still a ton of work to do on it, but for the time being, we’re super happy with it.
Speaking of retail… SAASMaine is now an authorized TAGINN retailer. Yes, that means grenades! You must be 18 or older and posess a P-TOP certification, and yes, we will be checking all that.
The P-TOP certification is free and can be completed in like 15 minutes at: TAGINN-USA.com
We will continue to carry 6mmPlastic bioBBs, and depending on how much we can stretch our credit card, we will also have the NEW Exfog XT units!
2024 will be our FOURTH season, and we’re blown away by the support from our players, and by the absolute quality of the airsoft community we’re building together. We promise to continue working on the field to build the absolute best airsoft experience for everyone.
