Pekin Paintball Park
Clip | 4m 12s
Pekin Paintball Park’s six fields offer options for people of all ages.
As a semi-professional paintball player, Amanda McKinley’s husband would drive for two hours just to find a place to practice. So, they built Pekin Paintball Park. The facility has six fields, including one with a castle for capture the flag, one modeled after Call of Duty, and two turf fields with inflatable buffers for team paintball. They host everything from birthday parties to tournaments.
