ROUTE 40 PAINTBALL PARK

Professional paintball player Tom Maliszewski opened Route 40 Paintball Park in 2000 to provide a quality arena to players in the White Marsh area. The paintball park features four hyperball fields, including two speedball fields, one spool field, and one wooded field. Route 40 also rents all the equipment you need to take on your opponents in a rousing game. The fields open at 10 a.m. on weekdays for daytime play and are lit on Wednesday nights over the summer for nighttime games.

All players are provided with safety gear to cover their entire face. A certified referee oversees the games and provides a safety briefing to make sure the games are fair. While Route 40 does stock water, soda, and Gatorade, players are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks as well so they can properly fuel up for the game. Alcohol is not permitted on the property.

FREESTATE SPORTS ARENA

In the Freestate Sports Arena, you’ll find 100,000 square feet of activity space that includes three playing fields and two sports courts for league play. Leagues are available for flag football, lacrosse, soccer, and roller hockey. You can also rent these facilities for private events and enjoy a game with friends or family any time.

If you’re looking for less organized play opportunities, there are other activities to enjoy inside Freestate Sports Arena as well. The Funzone is a kids’ play area that features moon bounces, inflatable playgrounds, and a sticky wall. This area is designed for children between the ages of 2 and 12. During the summers, Freestate sets up an inflatable waterpark outside with giant slip-n-slides, moon bounces, water slides, and water tag mazes for kids between the ages of 4 and 13. 

Guests between the ages of 7 and 13 can play Extreme Laser Tag at Freestate, too. These games use a 360-degree headband and lightweight laser guns to provide endless fun in the darkened indoor maze. Freestate offers free play, birthday parties, and summer camps.

Brake lights are featured on the karts as well. 

Children who are at least 48″ tall and 8 years old can use the speedway’s junior karts that go up to 25 mph. These karts are also equipped with roll bars, seat belts, and an automatic shutoff.
