History

Founded as Three Rivers on May 30, 2001 by Sir Garik of the Lands that Burn in the Town of Campbell on French Island at Nelson Park. The chapter was sponsored as a shire under the Burning Lands before the numbers waned and the group went inactive for a short time. In the summer of 2007 the few remaining members of Three Rivers assembled the necessary paperwork and reformed the Shire under the new name Dark Shores in nearby La Crosse. Since then the group has grown into a well rounded Amtgard park with ever growing attendance and is a unique and fun park to play in. The group was one of the earliest members of the principality of Olympus. In November of 2012 the chapter joined the rest of the Principality of Polaris in defecting to the Rising Winds.
