Tim Montressor Memorial Fund
Donation protected
Tim Montressor was a legendary pillar of the paintball community as both a player an event promoter and a valued voice in the industry. There are few that touched so many lives and made such a powerful and lasting impression on those that they met. In accordance with the wishes of Tim's parents, we will not be raising any money to send to them but instead, seek to create a monument. We believe that Tim deserves a lasting monument not only to the man who he was but the work he has done. It is our intention to commission and install a life-size bronze statue of Tim at Urban Assault Paintball field in Pittsburg Pennsylvania, the site of Tim's iconic Iron City Classic paintball event. The statue will be a permanent memorial to Tim and will overlook the place where Tim gave birth to a movement to revivify the sport that he loved so much and gave so much to.
To fully fund this project we are trying to raise $50,000 which will be done both through this gofundme campaign as well as through some additional fund raising activities that we have planned. Once commissioned the statue will take approximately 1 year to create and then install. It would be amazing to have this statue unveiled at ICC 2021! If you are unable to contribute at this time please share this far and wide on social media and help ensure that Tim and his contributions are never forgotten. In addition to this fundraiser, we will also be hosting a seven-man tournament to benefit and contribute to this purpose on July 18th, 2020 at Central Florida Paintball.
