As Gulf Wars is a member’s function on private property, Gulf Wars is not bound by the rules, regulations, or guidelines set by the ADA.  However, we wish to make the medieval SCA experience the best it can be for our members with special needs.  

Most of the buildings and lavatories are handicapped accessible and we have established a “Handicamp” with ease of access to most of the Gulf Wars experience as well as handicapped parking and special access portable toilets.  The Special Needs department is also available to assist our members with their individual concerns.

As per the ADA.gov site Gulf Wars defines a Service Animal as a guide dog individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability. If they meet this definition, dogs are considered service animals under the ADA regardless of whether they have been licensed or certified by a state or local government.

We request that all service animals be pre-registered and their owner/handler contact the Special Needs Coordinator upon arrival on site.

Owner/handler must have a copy of their Rabies certificate with their Vet's name, address and phone number at Troll for registration. Rabies tags will not be accepted as proof of vaccination.
Service animals will not be left unattended at any time. Animals must be on a leash at all times with owner/handler in attendance unless it is in a turn-out pen with owner/handler in attendance. If the animal's/dogs behavior is disruptive or destructive, you will be asked to remove it from the premises.
Each service animal owner/handler must sign a waiver. All owners/handlers of non-service animals must be pre-registered and contact the Autocrat
