History
The earliest known amtgard group in Florida, founded originally in 1992 by Roger Shrubstaff, Flotsam of Norgham and Tigger deCat. Instrumental in the formation of the Kingdom of Neverwinter.
Went defunct in 1993, restarted in 1994, and was active again until October, 2004 when its park was closed due to hurricane damage. Valiant started dragging people out again in 2006 and in 2007 the group became active again, and is meeting regularly at its old location.
Glory Days
Meeting in John Prince Park in Lake Worth, Silverwater reached a peak attendence of over 80 different people per week in the summer of 1997 when it was made a Duchy, and appeared by many to be a candidate for kingdom status on its own. At the time Falling Fire in the area was also pushing for such status, and in a key sequence of events, they set aside a rivalry to push together towards a common Floating Crown kingdom in Florida.
