Brenda Carlson and Jim Beebe top Paintball Biathlon standings

Sun, Mar  30, 2014 - By Justin Andre and Mariah Frye

Skiers from as far away as Pennsylvania came to shoot and ski for the World Championship of Paintball Biathlon!

The race extended over two days, with Paintball Biathlon events held at both Hanson Hills in Grayling and Cross Country Ski Headquarters in Roscommon. Individuals were challenged to ski laps around a designated course. At the end of each lap, participants had to shoot at 5 targets using a paintball gun. For each target hit 10 seconds of time was deducted from their time.

Weekend Warrior winners were Brenda Carlson and Jim Beebe for the open division, and April Chernoby and Steven Kempe for the Citizens division. The Sharp Shooter of the weekend was Vickie Putnam from Ohio.

Thanks to all the volunteers, staff and participants for the largest turnout for the Paintball Biathlon ever!
