Ironwood
A Chapter of the Wetlands, located in Conroe, Texas.
History
A strongly role-play oriented group, Ironwood's park is growing with old and new members each week.The players are friendly and love to quest.
Each week there are plenty of events that are happening. We include Role-Playing aspects each week, A&S demonstrations each month, and many different forms of fighting (including ditching, battlegames and full quests).
Our Park is now a Barony and is becoming the place to be within the Wetlands. Ironwood is known for it's hospitality and availability for hosting Monarchs and Kingdom level one-day events.
On a mundane note restrooms, water fountains, a large covered pavilion, a skate-park, a dog park and a children's playground are available, and lend to the more family oriented atmosphere of this park.
There is a Kroger and other amenities at I-45 and 336, on your way in.
===Current Monarchy===
- Baron: Kellthar
- Regent: Draggo Vindictus
- PM: Ilyana
- Champion: Yenshi
The current monarchy is supporting the ongoing trend of family oriented activities, promotion of A&S with bi-monthly themed competitions (See below), enforcement of minimum garb standard, promotion of the Rules of Play 8.0+, amusing-rather than totally dry- courts, public acknowledgment of achievement wherever possible, and in general having fun.
DOLLAR TOURNAMENTS
Every month we will be holding a "Dollar" tournament for the fighters. This will be a standard tournament (single sword, sword and shield, Florentine, and open). It costs $1 to enter all the events initially. In addition a person can pay an extra $1 per life to re-enter into each area. The funds raised from each tournament will go toward funding Park projects, travel to kingdom events, and half the proceeds will go to a local charity. The Tournaments will be on the following days:
January 26th February 23rd March 23rd April 27th May 25th
Theme Days for this Reign:
- February 23rd- Royal theme
- April 27th- 7 sins/ 7 virtues
- June 1st- Summertime
NOTE: These theme days are also coinciding with A&S tournaments
All dates are subject to change due to conflicts with Kingdom/Interkingdom calendar, etc.
