    Alright, I've been looking around for a good place near me in Westmeath but seems closest is in meath.
    I hear tell of one place maybe being set up near Mullingar near Delvin but guy in the shop I was in who told me wasn't sure on any details about it. Anyone know any place around?

    The Compound is only 35 km from Delvin and 55 km from Mullingar

    Hey man, I am opening up a site just outside Longford town in october. Unfortunetely, i cant open it any sooner. Anyway, The compound or vacant is probably the nearest site to us but it still takes at least an hour and a half to get there from Longford.

    About 7 acres of woodland, thick and thin and 1 to 2 acres of cqb.

    Sounds cool. When you say 1 to 2 acres of CQB, is it buildings/sheds/cabins?

    Its a bit of everything really. Will hopefully build a maze in the centre. Not sure yet. Im focusing on the forest at the minute and putting in a number of bridges connect the forestry to the field/cqb area.

    I also plan on putting in a carpark, shotting range and a large safe zone serving hot food during the day. There will also be a number of themed signs and structures to give a more warlike feel.

    Sounds very interesting. And not too far away is always good.
    What sort of time frame are you looking at?
