Transportation Services

KART, or Transport services is a department at Gulf Wars that provides, on a first come / first served basis, basic transportation of attendees via golf cart around the King’s Arrow Ranch site. Although we no longer provide the “point-to-point” service that the Special Needs Department provided, we serve not only the special needs members of our Society, but also a significant majority of the site with a “bus style” system including access to a majority of the camping areas, parking lots, archery range, battlefields, merchant’s area, Bede Hall, class tents, Early Period Life, Scribes Point and more.
The KART will maintain reasonable hours of operations in non-inclement weather. These hours of operations will be determined prior to war and may be adjusted with or without notice as demands necessitate. Efforts to alert the populace to adjustments in hours of operation may include heralds, notifications on social media (Twitter and Facebook), and Information Point. These adjustments may be determined by staffing, availability of carts, population camping density, road integrity, migration of services, special events, weather, and other unforeseeable circumstances.
The KART service is open to any and all attendees on a first come / first served basis. However, it is asked that able-bodied individuals with no walking impediments “give way” for those with special needs and/or mobility issues, the elderly, infirmed, or women who are pregnant.
Only that cargo which can be carried in the lap (a basket, bulky items) can be carried on the KART. Basically, if it takes up space a person can occupy, it won’t be allowed. No Items which may stick out and strike people are allowed.
Assistance dogs may ride as long as they are under complete control of their owner and conform to behavioral guidelines set forth on the ADA.gov website.
