Harris Field in 2013 and Beyond
By: OMEGO Date: December 12, 2012, 12:53 am
---------------------------------------------------------
[U]NEW Management[/U]
Bruce “Kinky” McKee and I are very pleased to be taking over the
management of Harris Field as unpaid volunteers. With the help
of David “Po” Johnson and several other generous volunteers, we
will make significant improvements to the field’s infrastructure
as well as the events that take place there. The property
owner, Ben Harris, has graciously welcomed us to use his land,
so Kinky and I will report to him directly.
[U]NEW Website[/U]
We are working with Savage to make updates to HarrisField.com
HTML http://HarrisField.com
so that it will continue to be the most
reliable source of basic information about the field. Savage
has already made several recent improvements to the site, so
please check it out.
[U]NEW Attendees[/U]
We are networking to get more southern Mainers involved in
airsoft and interested in the “SHUR” values that are shared by
many respected airsofters in this great state.

Likewise, we plan to attract more out-of-state operators to our
major events so that these operations will have massive turnouts
and make full use of all 55 acres.
[U]NEW Events and Favorite Sequels[/U]
As with prior years, we plan to have Harris Field open on almost
every Saturday from April through September in 2013. Then,
we’ll switch to Sundays starting in October. We plan to have
one major operation each month, but the specific dates are not
yet set because we want our calendar to mesh well with the major
events that are scheduled at other area fields rather than
directly competing on the same dates. We wish to collaborate
with Mills Stream, Manduca, Blackwater, Feel Good Farms, RPC,
Warrior Village, and other fields.
Here’s a tentative schedule of our major ops in 2013:
April = Ripsaw 2
May = One Republic: Renovatio
June = D-Day 2013
July = Vendetta 4
August = Afrodesia 2
September = NEW op based on Battle Royale
October = NEW stalker/zombie op
There will be mini-ops as well, but their scheduling is much
more flexible. I also plan to host another annual NEASG Sniper
Qualification Course that is likely to take place in April or
May. If all goes well, we are likely to host at least one
charity event before the end of the year. :)
[U]NEW Suggestion Box[/U]
Ideas, concerns, criticisms, and questions are always welcomed.
Please feel free to post below or send me a private message
about anything related to Harris Field. Starting in April, we
will have a suggestion box out at the field on open days so that
everyone is welcome to leave a note anonymously.

Kinky and I are eager to read your messages and will take them
to heart.
[U]Free Admission for Media[/U]
Starting on opening day, all photographers and videographers
will be given free admission to Harris Field airsoft events if
they are there to capture images and are not playing.
[U]Your Field[/U]
Starting in April, the airsoft activities that take place at
Harris Field belong to the people. This will be a
volunteer-based community venue operated by airsofters and
designed purely to entertain the airsofters who attend it.
Airsoft at Harris Field exists because of YOU, the airsofters.
Therefore, we will always greet you with a smile and treat you
with respect. I hope everyone who reads this can visit Harris
Field at least once in 2013. Kinky and I will have more
announcements as the new season draws near. We thank you all
for your support! :D

Glad to see that you guys are going to be running things over
there now. I'm sure that things just get better from here! you
will certainly be seeing CCAS down there as much as we can
visit. Maybe not me quite as frequently but I'm sure spetz,
I_Dawg, and Judge you will see pretty frequently.
