Mav’s Auction Wednesday Behind the Bunker
Evening Charity
Behind the Bunker https://behindthebunker.
During the last 3 Extravaganza’s 2017-2019,
over $20,000 was raised. All proceeds from
the charity auction will be donated to the Cute
Syndrome Foundation which funds research for
PCDH19 and SCN8A Epilepsy. Pev and Melissa
Peverill’s youngest son, Maverick suffers from
this rare form of Epilepsy. Because it’s so rare
(300 cases world wide) research funding is at a
minimum so all help from the Paintball Industry
is greatly appreciated and helpful. Already the
researcher have discovered that a common
epilepsy drug, actually is harmful to patients
with this rare form of epilepsy, so already it’s
going to help in the future. This year’s charity
auction contributed around $9,000. There
was an additional $700 cash donation after
event too. Thanks to everyone who donated
and purchased items in the auction.
com/ broad cast live on Wednesday evening

videos and more.
Thursday
9 am – Round Table – 40 attendees for the last
day, which covered anything, with Junior and
Gina hosting. Ray Trimble from Ninja gave a
short presentation on the ASTM. Tom Cole NXL
had some very interesting things he was doing
with the NXL to promote new players and help
fields and retails. The NXL is going to produce
a Player Safety Video Briefing for fields to use,
if they like. Secondary videos in this series will
include, advice for first timer players, beginner
tactics, advance tactics. Hopefully, there will
be a NXL Paintball video channels with all these
videos.
