AppreciationIf you stay for a while and work hard without getting hurt, Omego will give you an electronic credit to attend your choice of any one of our 2021 public airsoft events that take place on May 22 or thereafter; however, events like Clawhammer 3 by StagOps are excluded from this credit because they are produced by an outside organization.
