JOC Ropes Obstacle Course (Paintball Included)! Dec 11 (Sun)

If you like physical and psychological challenges and want to meet like-minded men and women (and shoot them!!), then join us on Sunday December 11th when we challenge ourselves on the famous Ring Homestead "Ropes Course & Paintballing".

Details:

Ropes Obstacle Course (3 HOURS)

The course has over 40 rope climbing and descending activities, both high and low, to challenge participants (check it out at www.ringhomesteadcamp.com). You are not required to do every activity if they freak you out. Some activities allow for the opportunity to climb trees and rappel from high wires. Upon arrival, the participants are divided into groups and are assigned a highly trained guide.

Paintball: (1 HOUR)

After the ropes obstacle course the JOC will head out to the fields for paintball. Great, SO WHAT IS PAINTBALL? Paintball is a fun friendly sport where a team tries to capture their opponents flag without getting splattered by a paintball. The balls are filled with a non-toxic water soluble, washable coloring. All the thrills you remember from when you were a kid playing games such as "HIDE & SEEK", "CAPTURE the FLAG" and "COPS & ROBBERS". It combines the best of these childhood games with a flare of strategy, the excitement of pursuit, the element of surprise, teamwork, cooperation and the feelings of accomplishment. There's several games variation available including last man standing and/or capture the flag. We will play for one hour - just enough to give us a taste of the fun (players may stay later and pay for additional paintballs). Given the time we have we'll probably stick to one or two games of last man/woman standing!!

Note: The paintball is included in the package rate. We can't give discounts for anyone not interested in the paintball activities. If you don't want to get involved with the heat of the battle, then feel free to use your bullets for target practicing.
