When playing at Silverwood Park, we may go inside the Visitor Center to use the restrooms, take a break from the weather, eat, play tabletop games, talk and hang out, but we do not LARP inside or on the surrounding patio.
Silverwood has granted us a Special Use Permit that allows Nerf and other foam dart blaster play only inside the Dyers Garden (or as we call it, The Dire Garden).
Silverwood also requests:
-
- We forgo realistic military and law enforcement costumes.
- We do not bring our mock weapons inside the Visitor Center.
- This includes boffers, foam dart blasters, and all other toys that could be perceived as weapons.
- Mock weapons may be stowed in the Cupholder of Doom LARP gear cart, inside your parent’s car, or underneath a bench outside the Visitor Center.
- Be sure any gear stowed under a bench does not prevent other park visitors from using that bench as a seat.
- We do not play inside the Visitor Center or on its patio.
- Tabletop games are allowed, of course. They mean active play.
- We remove any masks before entering the Visitor Center.
- Any other “potentially scary” costume elements should also be removed before entering the Visitor Center.
Be sure to check out the visual tour of Dragonwood’s Realm of the Silver Elves including our annotated map. The group meets on the Field of Destiny (aka Great Lawn). If it’s windy or rainy, the group might huddle in the lee of the Faraway Leaf Inn (Visitor Center) instead (please gather away from the doors — and please do not play on the patio). If the adventurers get too tired or the weather turns too unpleasant, they might go inside the local tavern (aka Silverwood Café) for refreshing beverages, delicious food, and tabletop games.
