Park History

Emailed about chapter updates--Linden 23:32, 3 July 2008 (EDT)

Park was started in Summer (June or July) of 1999 by Squire Aurin Silvermoon, Zero, James (forget his Amtgard name), Jesse (another name forgotten) and myself, when I was then known as Ace. We first started meeting at Rhinehardt Park on Saturday's, but moved it to Kiwanis Park during winter for ease of access (and the fact that Rhinehardt Park was closed during winter). It wasn't until early Fall that the name "Sacred Wind" was thought up...this being due to the fact that the wind was always blowing in the valley. The name was originated by Zero, and voted for and unanimously agreed upon shortly thereafter. We achieved roughly 20 unique sign-in's after a year or so, and raided the Seattle and Spokane parks regularly.

Moving on, I was able to get in contact with the park a couple months ago...only 2-3 people actually swing foam, and not on anything called a 'regular basis', by their own admission. In my mind, that leads to a defunct park. Sad to hear, considering, but all good things must end, I suppose.

Use whatever of this you wish on the main page, Linden. --Ashen 17:20, 4 July 2008 (CST)

FYI: This is referring to a different land >Sacred Winds< That was also founded in Ellensburg, WA. Munch Ironfistersson 18:47, 3 May 2015 (EDT)

Defunctness

No ORK3 attendance since may-of-2014, plus numerous on the ground reports from newbies that have attempted to attend with disappointing results. One woman I spoke with described waiting with her husband for two hours each week for a mouth to no avail. On a side note. I'm a part owner in a bookstore here in Ellensburg, WA and I dabble in talking about Amtgard with my customers and because of that I sometimes get local /regional testimonials & reports.

So I'm setting Sacred Wind as defunct. Nobody likes burned newbies, the smell is terrible. :-D Munch Ironfistersson 18:38, 3 May 2015 (EDT)
