Badger Tac & Blue Streak Airsoft:- A BIG Announcement
Hi everyone,
Some of you we have spoken to you privately already but we also know that there are many more of you who we haven’t seen to give our news to.
So, for those of you whom we haven’t seen in a while, we have a Bad news/Good news announcement for you all.
Let’s start with the Bad News:-
If you have played at the Blue Streak Airsoft site at Westcott Venture Park, then you will know that we have always been under no illusion that one day, the 30 acre site we use would be developed. So it is with a heavy heart to announce that this day has come. I am at present, awaiting a works schedule from the developers, but it is all happening very soon. Westcott, not surprisingly, will eventually become the centre for the UK Space & Rocket technologies.
Our last Official Game day will take place on Sunday 21st August. This will be Operation “Final Hurrah” and, in true Badger Tac tradition we are planning something big, including an evening session & some additional extras! More info to follow…
There may well be some smaller events after this date, but that is not guaranteed at this time.
Now the Good News:-
Although Blue Streak Airsoft will close, there is some restructuring taking place. Badger Tac Events will have a new Face Book Page & website to notify you all about future events. So please keep an eye out for this and like/share the new pages.
Yes folks, we are far from dead & buried and we are growing in size as well as more skirmish/event sites to continue bringing you good old fashioned, fun filled and varied airsoft events and more to boot.
We have a new 30 acre site which will be coming on line September/October time. Along with this we are in negotiations with potentially 3 other sites. Now 2 of these are very local to our existing location, with the other 2 a little further away. All info will be put up on the Badger Tac, Badger Tac Events as well as my personal Ian Armitage Face Book Pages. The Blue Streak Airsoft page will remain for the photos that are up on there, but will become dormant.
Summary
Although the closure of Blue Streak is a great, great, shame, to coin a phrase “Don’t Panic! Don’t Panic!”. The next few months will perhaps be some of our busiest, with organising and prepping the new venues as well as promoting them all. In the meantime, we are running some extra special events at Blue Streak which we will be advertising over the next few days, so get your diaries out!
The Badger Tac Shop is Remaining where it has been for the last 6 years on Westcott Venture Park So no change there.
We as a team & I personally would like to take to this time in thanking you all for your support over the last 3 years, without which we wouldn’t be able to still operate.
Moving forward we would very much like your continued support over the coming months and years at the new venues. We will be posting up for volunteers for site stripping and new site build days too.
Stay in touch guys & gals and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
Kind regards
Ratty & the Badger Tac/Blue Streak Team
