Merrill Dunes
Private Events
All prices include all taxes. Play time is accurate and means that players get the full 1, 1.5, or 2 hr play time indicated. Equipment setup and return as well as initial instructions are not included in the paid time period so, for example, a two hour event takes about three hours from arrival to departure. There is no clothing nor extra ammo associated with laser action tag, so the price listed is THE price. Pay that and payment is done - then all fun! Prices are Per Player in the group.
Prices are based on debit or e-transfer payment. Credit card payment boosts cost by 2%.

In 2025 we no longer offer paintball nor airsoft - only Laser Action Tag. If you have any difficulty in figuring out what time duration you wish and when we are available, CALL! I can help you navigate for an optimal solution to your needs.
When are we available? We have excellent night lighting. All time slots have a 10 player minimum with the exception of Sunday afternoon. 1 hour and 1.5 hour events are available any time other than Sunday afternoon but do not have the assurance of total privacy. There could be more than one group on the property. Durations of 2 hrs or more assure you of exclusive use of the entire property and safe zone.
What event packages are on offer?
We offer 1 hour, 1.5 hour, 2 hour, 2.5 hour, and 3 hour managed laser action tag events. This is our standard event format.
We offer an off-site equipment rental package for use over weekends (Friday to Monday).
For groups over 30 players we offer custom events that can be tailored to budgets (more or less bells and whistles).
We offer mobile events which normally are used for large groups or special gatherings. Pricing is custom based on details.
We offer mobile events that can be held indoors. Again, pricing is custom based on details.
What is the cost for a specific package?
Why does price per person vary for a specific package? Larger groups, to a point, are more efficient so our pricing encourages higher group sizes and results in savings for the client and for Merrill Dunes.
Monday to Thursday:
9:00am to 11:30am
1:00pm to 5:30pm
6:30pm to 10:00pm
Fridays:
9:00am to 11:30am
1:00pm to 5:30pm
6:30pm to close time - see calendar for specific day
Saturdays:
Closed during the day but you can check the calendar for a specific day and see an arrival time for a late evening event. Player number minimum is 10. You can do a 1.5 hour, or a 2 hour event but we lean on you to stick to the 2 hr standard. That duration fits realities! Staffing this late-nighter is a challenge and as a result we ding you $5.00/player extra on the basic price.
Sundays: The player minimum for the afternoon time slot is 14 players and a minimum 2 hour duration.

2 hr events are by far the most popular. There is a learning curve and, really, 1 hr events are very poor value. We do a few 1.5 hr events, but the last half hour of the 2 hr event is worth the first three half hours in that everyone knows what they are doing and the pace is in high gear!
Longer than 2 hrs becomes an energy issue. We can run most people to energy depletion in 2 hrs!
Pricing for groups over 30 or for mobile service is based on details and discussion.
Player #
Players can not be alcohol impacted. The laser gear is costly and drunk players are brutal on the equipment as well as being a safety hazard to themselves. Adrenaline intoxication is inevitable and we live with it!
