Military simulation Demo Days to be held in Rochester

ROCHESTER — Interested in military simulation? Like playing with specially designed devices that project small pellets?

Then get involved in the first Demo Days event to take place in New England on July 16 at Waste Management's Turnkey facility. It's a two-day, overnight warlike event that will benefit the families of soldiers.

The "airsoft" event is like paintball but the pellets go farther and are more accurate. Organizers says it's an honorable game. Waivers will have to be signed.

Planning Board member Rick Healey the event has been ready to go for months. He said he informed the police so they don't think a militia is trying to take over the city.

Registration begins at 7 a.m. July 16. Admission is $20. There will be a 9 a.m. briefing and then the fun begins. For more information call (603) 978-5349.
