Celebrate Halloween with a full day of airsoft hosted by War Zone Airsoft, featuring a seasonal twist on gameplay and a $15 entry special. A costume contest is part of the fun, and the top outfit earns a free game day. Players can gear up with on-site rentals. The entry-level package, priced at 25 dollars, includes a Mod-M or Mod-L AEG, one high capacity magazine, a bag of 1,000 Valken 0.20 g BBs, a 9.6 volt lithium battery, and an M1-3 thermal mask.

Add-on rentals are available, including a 9.6 lithium battery for 10 dollars, an M1-3 thermal mask for 10 dollars, a high cap magazine for 5 dollars, and a STRYKER chest rig for 20 dollars. Safety and fair play are central to the experience. Full seal eye protection meeting ANSI Z87.1 or higher is mandatory on the field at all times. Keep masks and protective gear on in play areas, call hits with honesty, avoid blind firing, and do not move or climb obstacles. When tagged, announce the hit, display a red dead rag, and head to respawn. Maintain respectful conduct, involve a referee if issues arise, and note that physical contact is prohibited and may result in ejection and further action. Firing modes are announced by referees each round. All replicas must pass a chronograph check prior to play, with random checks possible, and suspected hot guns should be reported. In the safe zone, clear the replica, remove the magazine, switch to safe, and fire a few clearing shots into a safe backstop before removing face protection. Referees have the final say. Age-based protection is required. Players 10 to 15 must use full face protection. Players 16 to 17 need full seal eye protection with mesh or plastic lower face coverage. Players 18 and older must use full seal eye protection, with additional face protection encouraged. Red dead rags are required for everyone and are available for purchase on site. Rental users must run approved BBs or BBs purchased from War Zone Airsoft. Chronograph standards use at least 0.32 g BBs for HPA and 0.20 g BBs for pistols, AEGs, and spring-powered replicas. Rate of fire is capped at 25 rounds per second. Class limits and engagement distances apply. Pistols must be under 1.45 joules with 0.20 g BBs, with no minimum engagement distance in semi and a 25 foot minimum in full auto. Shotguns must be under 1.45 joules with 0.20 g BBs, with no minimum in semi and a 50 foot minimum in full auto. Rifles are capped at 1.5 joules with 0.20 g BBs for AEGs and 1.55 joules with 0.32 g BBs for HPA, typically carry a 10 foot minimum in semi unless adjusted by the head referee, and full auto is enabled only in specific games. SMGs must be 1 joule or below with 0.20 g BBs, use mid cap magazines, have no minimum in semi and a 25 foot minimum in full auto, and must be true SMG platforms or fully automatic sidearms. LMGs must be under 1.5 joules with 0.20 g BBs, use burst fire with a 25 foot minimum, reserve full auto for 50 feet, and should not be walked in full auto unless the platform can also fire in semi.

Sniper platforms are bolt action only, capped at 2.25 joules with 0.20 g BBs, and have a 100 foot minimum. Grenade use follows specific guidelines. Only pyrotechnic and smoke grenades sold at the field are permitted, and only in designated areas. Homemade devices are not allowed. Throws should be underhand and never directed at a person, though lobbing into windows is allowed. Grenades have a 15 foot effect radius, hard cover only negates effects in milsim scenarios, and a detonation inside a room eliminates all players in that room. Expect a festive atmosphere, straightforward pricing, and clear rules designed to keep the action safe and enjoyable for players of all experience levels.

Ages 15 and up can build confidence and elevate audition material in a four-week contemporary monologue workshop. Guided by award-winning actor, playwright, and director Marc S.

Over the course of the program, participants learn to choose material that fits their age and type, analyze text to uncover character, objectives, and motivation, create authentic emotional connections, strengthen voice, movement, and stage presence, improve memorization and audition techniques, and exchange constructive feedback in a supportive setting. There is time between meetings to rehearse and apply new skills. The series concludes with two showcase performances for an audience, offering valuable stage experience and a chance to present finished work. This program is free, but space is limited and advance registration is required. Consistent attendance is expected for all four sessions and both showcases, and missed commitments may result in removal from the program and could affect future audition opportunities with Carrollwood Players. Participants must provide their own monologue or script between three and five minutes, and no two performers may use the same selection. Marc S. Sanders will contact participants before the first class to review and approve selections, and scripts should be brought to the first meeting.
