Only downside is this isn't really an off season activity but it would be cool to plan it during the warmer months.
Depends on how you look at it. Frozen paintballs can just be regarded as an increased penalty for getting hit

Very cool
also very Muchos Pesos if you drive.
There's a restaurant and a pool room there, and an observation deck to watch those who chose to race. You must wear a firesuit, head sock and helmet (they provide them). It's not the little lawnmower powered go-karts that you've all ridden before.

Very COOL!!! We had my brothers bachelor party there, great fun. I didn't agree with the final standings in our race though. I started 3rd, passed two cars, nobody passed me, yet they had me finished in 4th place.
Fun just the same though, I finished ahead of everyone in our party!!

Ray used to have a paintball set up on his farm..
the main thing I don't like about paintball is it reminds me if we are ever in a shooting war i'm a Disposable Ensign.

LOL....maybe you caught up with the rest of the pack?
I've been there, although I did not drive the carts, just checked it out. Looks like a lot of fun for the entire family.
The one thing I remember about my visit, is how quiet it is. The carts are electric, the only noise you hear is when the carts bump each other...

Sledding will depend on (as always) conditions. I don't care if it is snowING, but if there is no snow aka (they don't make it first) that has been a challenge in previous years. But YES, that would be fun, and less...painful, than paintball! We had a LOT show up for the tubing!
Can certainly check out the cart things too. I will try to keep pricing in mind as many people do come in multiples for these things.

Even us older folks can endure the next mornings pain that goes with sledding. Wonder if we could at the other tracks going down the hill ! Two for one. FjR68
