North Bergen County NJ. This is where it may be. Okay, I have a great park around the block from me, brand new (it's huge). I don't know but I might just set up a war this Thanksgiving break...if interested post or PM me with days (friday to sunday this week), info you need to know, I'll listen. I will try to get pics/vids up by tommorrow.

Thanks in advance


My cousins and some friends may come that is ABOUT 5 PEOPLE.
The ONLY WAY that this will happen is if I can get enough people!
It will probably be around 11:00 am!

Possibles:
My cousins/friends from Northvale

Most wars are set up one month ahead of time. Sometimes even TWO. I doubt anyone will come. Try Christmas.

There already is a war for Thanksgiving weekend down at Mill Creek Park in Bayville, NJ.

Thanksgiving War at the Shore

I don't know how many other people you will tap for this event as there are alot of NJ nerfers coming to thsi one.

I'd be interested if you could get more people.

Also, what is the name of the park, and what is the address?

This war would only work if it is NOT on that Saturday. As mentioned above, the Mill Creek war is already tapping out the region. It could work on that Friday or Sunday, however, but you need to make a decisive call - doesn't matter if it's up or down - just quickly. There are people like myself who would be willing to nerf back-to-back days, but we need to know by today so we can make the proper preparations. Nothing sucks more than having to make a load of darts, fix/mod guns, and make travel arrangements the night before.

If you do decide to go for it, look through previous war topics to get the format down. You'll see what kind of directions are necessary, pics are nice to attract potential players, times need to be up there, local rules if any, gun restrictions if any, etc. It's pretty a pretty logical and self explanatory process. No need to be intimidated by hosting your first war, as long as you follow the examples of other successful wars.

Same, but I'd be late. I live in Bergen County, so it's easy. Decide on a date.

Sunday, what time sounds good? I'm leaning more toward 1:00 or 2:00

The sun will set at 4:30 or so.. Try more like 10 am like a normal war. I'm out for this one. Seems like a hell of a drive anyway.

Plan it against the weather. Sunday's forecast is for rain and mid 40s. Given the chance for rain, you want to start in the morning to get more nerf in. 11 AM would be better than 10 AM personally, cause it's the day after the Mill Creek war and that war's gonna be a hell of a 3 part trip early in the morning and late at night.

I won't be able to make this one...realized that I can't spend the day in Jersey. I've got to get back to New London to do all the work I didn't get done over the break.

It's alright. The field by the playground did look cool though. Me or keef will contact you when we host another bcno (Bergen County Nerf War). The field is in Glen Rock.
