PaintballToGo Fields are owned and operated by Angie and Joe Schnelten. We are a family ran field located in central Illinois. We have been in the paintball business since 1998 and running the fields since 2001.
We strive to ensure that every player that comes to our place has a good time. When players talk about our fields, they often mention that they like the family feel and level of customer service that we provide.
We run private groups throughout the year. Our place is perfect for your birthday party, bachelor party, church youth group, family reunion, or team-building or corporate event. We have a pavilion for player use located next to the closest field, right outside of the shop and plenty of parking. You can call Joe at 217-370-6071 to book your private group.
We have been hosting scenario games for 20 years. We have a WW II themed 2 day scenario game Monte Cassino each spring. We had a record 520 players in 2018, around 500 in 2019, we did not have Monte in 2020 due to Covid-19.
We also host a pirate themed 2 day game called Pirates' Plunder each fall. It's a smaller, more laidback game. We had 170 players in 2018, up from 113 in 2017. We had around 200 in 2019. In 2020 we did not have Pirates due to Covid-19.
Our Monte Cassino game is currently one of the faster growing games in the Midwest. We went from 260 players in 2017 to 520 players in 2018, and around 500 players in 2019. However, one of the most important things that you need to understand about us is that we would rather have a smaller well-run game, where everyone has fun, than a huge game that is a disaster. The thing that makes our games great is the quality of the players that we attract. The type of player we want is the one who will stop to help out another player, who will take the time to build up the younger players, and who is there to have fun and make sure the other players have fun also. If you are this type of person, you will love our game and we will love you. Check out our video below to see an excerpt from the Monte Cassino 2019 pregame briefing covering player expectations.
On the other hand, if you are the type of person who has to win at all costs (including cheating) and thinks that a group of kids rocking Tippmann 98s are a joke, you are not going to like our games. In turn, we probably aren't going to tolerate you. There is something that Joe has been known to say now and then during game orientation, it goes something like this: "If you are an @sshole--stay home, we don't need your money that bad." If you enjoy causing grief and creating havoc, you will not be welcome here. ( Note: this is normally not an issue for us, but as our game grows and more people are discovering our events, we would prefer to save everyone the hassle.) If you just want a mass of people and chaos, there are plenty of bigger games out there for you. If you want to have fun and build some life long friendships, come see us. We're excited to meet you and welcome you into our paintball family. Registrations are currently open for Monte Cassino 2022. Hope to see you there!
