How long is your (and/or your team's) soaker "season"?
Ours is from April 1st, to October 1st.

For me, outdoor soaker season starts whenever the outdoor temperature rises consistently above ~15-20C (60-70F) and ends when it drops below that. As for mini-indoor fights, that goes year round, interest and location willing.
For sake of argument, I consider "on-season" for iSoaker.com to be between March 21 (start of Spring) to Sept 21 (start of Fall/Autumn), but that's just to have dates tied to the two equinoxes.

Waterbridge had a season from March 1 to October 31. The Ridgewood Militia technically had no off-season. The only limit was it had to be at least 50 degrees outside. We had a skirmish on Shelter Island in December once. We also almost had a full war on the 5th of January last year, the freak day when it was 72.

Oh, god, I remember that day. My buddies were all in T-shirts and shorts. We were sweating like mad.
