The Minnesota Paintball Association
Web Site reaches over 50,000 Views!
Since 1996 the MPA / MPL organization has been promoting Paintball and
Safety in Minnesota.
The MPL
launched it's web site (www.paint-ball.org) in the summer of 2000
after one of it's members attended a committee meeting at the
Minnesota State Capitol and listen to several Congressmen speak
misinformed about paintball and stated that they had gotten most of
their information from researching paintball on the internet.
This committee meeting has voting to send a Bill to the floor that
would severely restrict paintball in Minnesota. The Bill was sent on
for a vote after a number of change were made, thanks to the help of
some great people that really love our sport.
Now with the
MPA web site up, Congressmen, Judges, Mothers and anyone else that
does research on paintball and safety, can read good information and
be better informed when deciding if we can play paintball or not, in
Minnesota.
In 2002 the Minnesota Paintball League change it's name to Minnesota
Paintball Association. (MPA)
Now you can
find that a lot of Minnesota paintball companies and teams have added
a link to the MPA web site helping to promote paintball and safety.
Thanks! Together we can keep paintball safe and growing.

Paintball Association also runs this web site (Minnesota Paintball
Internet Guide)

companies in and around Minnesota.
