We are busy getting the fields and staging area into tip top shape.  The massive snowfall in Nov. 2020, knocked down some very important safety netting.  This weekend we got the poles back up, but the netting is still frozen to the ground and will take at least another week to thaw.
Paintball will be the only activity at the park for now, with Covid-19 restrictions.  Remember to book your crew 2-3 weeks ahead.  There is a $10 per person deposit, and we can have 22 players at once in one group only.

Thanks to all our customers helping us get through a Covid-19 Pandemic year.  It wasn't easy, couldn't open until July, and then with massive restrictions. 
The Haunt was successful, and lots of people had a safe and fun time.  Plans are already in the works to make next year even better.
It take a huge team to make everything work well, and we are very proud of our team.  Thanks.

Due to the cold weather likely for the last 2 weekends for the Haunt season, we are making some changes to dates and times.
Social Distancing and Covid-19 Restrictions
Our new line ups seem to be working well for processing customers through quickly and safely.  Please remember to dress warmly, as we have very limited area around the firepits to warm up.  We are enforcing fairly aggressively social distancing of groups.  If you are with a group, please identify and stay with them.  So far, masks are not mandatory, but are encouraged.  We will need to sanitizer your hands before entry.  Please follow all staff instructions for your, our safety and the general public.

Looks like we are part of Phase 4.1 for Paintball, but Laser Tag is part of Phase 4.2.  4.1 could be end of June, but 4.2 will be later.  Hopefully, the Haunted Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch will be open in the fall.
We will have a number of restrictions in place.
  • If you feel unwell, have a cough or a fever, please do not participate today. For the health and safety of our staff and customers, we ask that you leave our facility, self-isolate, and seek medical attention.
  • Use online waivers when possible.
  • Use hand sanitizer as soon as you enter staging area.  Hand sanitizer if provided for your use. We encourage you to wash your hands often, as per Health Canada guidelines.
  • Please maintain 2m or 6.5 feet physical distancing at all times, both on and off the field.
  • If you have to sneeze or cough, make sure it's into your elbow.
  • Your equipment has been cleaned and disinfected prior to your arrival at our park.
  • Your mask is your safety device. It has been cleaned and disinfected, and has sat unused for 72 hours to ensure your safety. Please keep your mask on at all times when on the playing field.
  • Please do not share your equipment with others. Your equipment is for your use only for the duration of your visit to our park.

Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) has us shutdown until Phase 4, which they estimate if all things go right the end of June 2020 is the estimated re-opening with restrictions.
Likely restrictions will be a limited number of groups and people at the field at once and social distancing too.  New improved cleaning protocols too.
More details to follow.

If you don't know who Jim Browning is, he is awesome and hacks scammers.  They are called "scam baiters", I love these guys and what they do to help with the scamming problem.  He just helped bring down one scam ring in Delhi India, and he documented in 4 YouTube videos.  Less than 1 hour to watch all parts, and it's awesome.
When a scammer tried to hack his computer, he reversed the hack and found their location, their cctv camera, and identified the employees and bosses, basically everything.  It's a fascinating how much work he did, and connections and how he got them.

Eventually a BBC news crew does a story on this scam, and actually travel to Dehli, and when their news story broke, the local police saw it, and made a raid and arrests.
