Thanks Fumps! Although Leeds is probably only about 90mins away!!! ;)

 
Yeh matey didn't realise this

So I may make a visit after all.

Will let you know. I just have to sort a rif first

 
We will do for defo Baz! I've just PM'd you. Thanks for the offer of spreading the word too, advertising is going to be key for this. We've a lot riding on the success of the first event
Hey Man, if your thinking of advertising, obviously bookface and twitter are good but have you thought about contacting Veterans World and all the ex Reg organisations in your area? Only a thought but you could get all the vets to form teams and would be awesome publicity for it! Best a luck to you pal

 
Thanks a lot for the advice Dutch. We'll certainly take a look at that. We need as many people as we can for the first event, but realise that this might be easier said than done as we'd be a new event and an untested entity! The scenarios are developing well and we're currently looking into prices for different options for the weekend. We want to keep the cost as low as a possible for the first one to attract more people but put everything raised back into the game to make it as exciting as possible! So far if our numbers work we're confident we can put on a pretty good event :)

 
Latest update! After a meeting this afternoon with our accountant we've now officially registered the Company! Next week will see the final stages such as Bank, Public Liability Insurance, UKARA Registration and then we can start building and developing the scenario. Website design will begin this weekend! All being well we'll be in a position to push live our website, social media, and advertising for the first event sometime around March 10th! This will give us about 2 1/2 months to get all the moving parts in order :) Exciting times

 
Are you going to register with the British Airsoft Club ?

 
We're planning on registering with as many official bodies as possible. Tomorrow will hopefully be really helpful for us.

 
Well update from yesterday's visit to the show! We had a very productive day and managed to talk to a lot of very friendly & helpful people. We've been very fortunate to have received full support and backing from AA & AI Magazine who are going to help us advertise and push the event and also come and cover it to write a review. After an extremely lengthy discussion with Ben from AI Mag, we've decided to move away slightly from our initial full on Mil Sim experience and conduct more of a Training weekend experience. We will recruit the help of serving subject matter experts to ensure the skills being taught are the latest and most up to date! We will break Saturday evening and lay on a few drinks and BBQ and give everyone the chance to chill out, discuss, and recover from the days scenarios before heading out to do it all again early Sunday morning. We're still going to throw everything we've got into the scenarios and they will be as realistic as possible. We should have all details ready to be published Mid March when our new website and social media sites go live, as well as linking them into both AA & AI news feed on their sites. So keep an eye out for further info and I'll get back to writing some scenarios :)

 
Awesome guys.

I like the weekend experience idea, BBQ & beer during the night sounds ace.

Good luck guys

 
Just a thought but had you seen that Operation Shining light has been postponed? Maybe you would fancy doing something that weekend, that way all of us that were planning to go to that event can come and be your guineapigs :)

 
Hahahahaha! We'd love too, but unfortunately it's securing the real estate. We don't want to rush the first one, as this is what we'll be judged on so it's important it's good!

 
New Facebook page for our debut event is now up and running. Green Zone Military Simulation LTD! Take a look and share with as many people as possible :)

Just an update as to where we're at right now! Things have been a little quiet at the moment due to a misunderstanding on our part with the MoD. As it stands from an events point of view we're all ready to go. The scenarios are all written, we've got the training team assembled who will deliver the coaching, with IED experts and Snipers to deliver Sniper training. All our extras and actors are all in place and the dems/battlefield effects have all been provisionally booked. All that we need to do now is confirm the availability of the areas. We're hopeful that we'll have a decision soon and then we can officially launch the event. So things are still moving slowly, but at least they're moving! We're committed to getting this event up and running as we've invested a lot of money and time into getting it to where we are at the moment and will not see it fail before it even gets off the ground!

 
Great news we're back on! Should have a date for the debut event by the end of the week. It will be on a new area but will be much better suited to the scenario we're running. Keep an eye on our website www.greenzoneairsoft.co.uk for more details. You can also follow us on Twitter @GRNZone_Airsoft and FB: Green Zone Military Simulation LTD.

We're finally happy again after months of hanging around we can start to get things moving again. Spread the word and hope to see as many people as possible there. :)

 
Finally sorted the first date. July 12th & 13th in a brand new area within Salisbury Plain Training Area. Check out our website and FB Page for more details. Hope to see as many of you there as possible.
