Hello folks. I am about to open a show in a few weeks and I found out today that the National Guard decided they could not loan us the camo netting for our show to create the tree canopy above the audiences head. I need to find something that I could create that effect above their heads that would be somewhere in the range of 45' x 65'. Any suggestions?

We needed several much smaller pieces recently for our production of "South Pacific". We ordered it from a hunting catalog called cheaperthandirt.com yes that's the name of website. I don't remember how much it cost off the top of my head but I was surprised how cheap the camo was.

I checked them out but I couldn't find any camo netting on the website. Maybe I missed something (which is highly possible)

Still rather pricey, any other places or ideas that would be similar but cheaper then camo netting?
