Personally I wear eveything that the dept. issues. But at the same time I have a issue with the helmet that the dept. issued me. The paint is chipped and falling off. I have mentioned this to the chief and he has said it is no big deal. Any ideas ...

Does anyone out there know where I can find the water ball Regulations? My Department is working on setting up our water ball court and we are looking for guidance on the regulation for competition. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

just so you know, thats the westside of el paso. if you go south on mesa, you run into a bar called erins, its a pretty happening spot. i know the westside pretty well. there's also uncle paulies at the coner of mesa and sunland park. its pretty cool. but yea, best thing to do is look in that park. good luck man, hope you enjoy your time in el paso.

well if your on the east side the dirt track is on that side of town off of montana. friday nights i think around 7. its called el paso speedway park. look it up online there will be info on whats going on this weekend. one of the best things to do is look in the paper in the EL TIEMPO, lists all the bars and stuff in your area.
At 8:13pm on May 12, 2008, TJ said…
well all depends on what all you like to do. if you like clubs, they're here, if you like bars, they're her. other than that theres races on the weekends, drag racing and dirt racing. not sure what you looking for.
