    TK Needs Help wth EMR Paintball Museum and AGD's Display There

    Hi All,

    I have gotten word that the EMR museum will be closing and sold off. I want to get back the AGD display there. Does anyone know what is going on or have contact info? Also any one close by that could intervene on my behalf?

    Thanks!!

    AGD

    shared your post on the old school paintball guns fb page and tagged you. Im sure someone there has a contact with all people that are on there.


    edit: I was told that either Ralph Torrell or someone else has gotten in touch with you. That was pretty quick even for social media.

    I'd like to know what's going on there..... this is the last year for Castle, and the museum's closing? It may be nothing, but it's not a good sign when one of the largest bastions of paintball on the east coast starts downsizing.

    Anyway, this should almost be played close to the chest, if it's to be done on Mr. AGD's behalf. And before the proverbial left hand does something the right isn't aware of. The more people know about it, the more people there will be looking to add to their widely dispersed collections.

    I finally start getting to the point where non-work-related travel may be in my future, and the major attractions are boarding windows. Figures.

    Sad to hear. Hopefully things will work out for the better. I'd hate to see that legendary museum get parted. If you need any east coast help I think we have you covered.

    the way i understood it was that this is the last year for the castle in its present configuration. after 20 years it may be in need of a major overhaul.

    Lack of interest and the cost of keeping the museum insured and secured.

    Talked to Blue and all is well. He is NOT closing the park, just returning the museum stuff or putting it into storage. I am willing to pay someone to go there, crate up the display and get it on a truck heading toward me. It would be great if this was an AO project since I know I can trust all you guys

    Thanks!

    So, someone with some time on their hands needs to fly up there, get a u-yank, pick it up, and drive it home. Hmmm...... This is a loading sequence.... Grab a beer and get loaded

    I'm going to miss helping with this and tunaball this year!?!? I may have to postpone the honeymoon with Sharona.

    By the way, if it cuts down on shipping, feel free to forward the exhibit down to Bunny's AGD museum...



    Fully insured and has a camera on it 24x7. (I can't believe Sharon actually let me do this... lol)

    By the way.... PLEASE take some nice pictures of the exhibit so we can stick it in the Archives. I tried to find some pictures, but the only thing I saw was that grainy youtube video. Lets document this collection correctly!!

    Well, Bunny, considering the fact that the price of 3 of those covers the security system AND the entertainment system, it's not too far a stretch! Love the Tequila Sunrise (?)!

    Thanks everyone but BigEvil and I are going to work it out since he works at a place that can crate and ship. I will keep you posted on the progress and get some nice pics when it gets here.
