Sounds cool, I live by Lansing but I probably can't attend this year as I won't have my drivers license to get there.

I'll go If enough people consider going to this event. Also I don't know if alcohol is such a good idea for a place with powerful cannons and kids. Oil and water if you know what I mean

We were thinking the same thing with the alcohol. But we also are hoping to make this more than just a spud gun thing to. We will have an ambulance available on sight. If something should happen to go wrong.

The economy has slowed down quite a bit here in Michigan, so we are looking to start a fun and cheap past time kind of thing. And who doesn't love spuds.

Videos and pictures will be up soon for some of the events

Sounds good. I am looking forward to it already. I think it's going to be pretty cool competing in events and stuff. Can't wait.
