I had a chance today to go out and meet up with the field owner and get a sneak peek at the field. I was very impressed by the field as a whole as the owner said it was about 50 acres total with a mix of areas well suited to game play. The field is level land with surrounding hills bordered by Gales creek on one side and private timber land to the other surrounded by former rail beds which are level grades and would make a great way of moving throughout the field.
The owner has went to great lengths to make improvements such as an outdoor area with a full kitchen, camping area and a covered area with staging area big enough to support a large op. In the camping area there is an actual restroom/shower facility which would also be suited for a large event/camping instead of porta-johns found at other venues. The owner has some trenches and rudimentary cover areas built and said that his construction background would ensure further improvements among them modular type structures/scaffolding that could be moved and changed up for individual games ensuring unique games. The improvements can easily be facilitated by heavy equipment he has at hand.
My one thought was what a great area this would be to play and excited that the land owner is eager to make it even better. The mix of open, wooded and surrounding hills/creek would great for having multiple types of game play and the field wouldn't wear you out at the end of the day.
I look forward to a chance to play this field is the bottom line. I was able to snap a few photos before it got too dark but unfortunately didn't get any of the restrooms and more of the outside staging area:
