Field Status (Active) and Rules: Hilltop Field

I know we talked about posting rules for each field a while back, but can't find any...maybe I am the first. Here goes. I am posting this with an eye to figuring out a standard format as well. Thus I WILL be editing this sticky as needed. Right now its a bit unorganized but I just wanted to get everything written down. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Directions: From 100 Mile House, turn East on Canim Hendrix lake Road. Drive 10 km to Thorstein Rd (forth left). If you pass PineValley Road (on left) or Buffalo Creek Elementary School (on left) you have gone too far. Follow Thorsteinson road up (in elevation) until it turns sharply to the left, and changes its name to Ridge View Rd. Follow this up (in elevation) until it intersects Hilltop Rd. Turn Right. Drive up(in elevation) Hilltop Rd. We are only driveway on right. Main entrance is marked with '5913 Hilltop' in a log sign and is 2 km from Canim Hendrix Lake Road-Thorsteinson turnoff. Also there is a 100 foot tower (light at night) marking property for those parachuting in. You may be greeted by a retriever. He is extra friendly and will not bite (unless you are an ass-hat). Park on the road if there is some question. Setup area is in front of house.

Emergency Info: Participants with medical conditions affected by heat, running, smoke, loud sound effects, adrenaline, dermal bruising or brief bursts of pain, please let site owners know in advance. Some emergency first aid available on site, but some warning is appreciated.

We are experienced combat sport hosts (14 years and counting), and take our hospitality and care of our guests seriously but are only able to help if we know if someone needs some aid. Stay alert and help keep our fellow players safe and in the game.

Police and other ERT are most welcome during game days at any time, but for safety reasons please contact site owner or host before entering the field during play. (Neither they or you will have sufficient eye protection for the encounter).

Any other questions please contact site owner or game organizer. (Insert TV cop voice):"And remember...Be careful out there"

Hmm...I think I will print this out and post it on the property for game days.

And maybe drop a copy off at the RCMP for their files.
