Knighting ~ A Robin Hood Festival Tradition

Each year, several Sherwood citizens are chosen to be honored for their service to their community.  Each person is "knighted" at the Robin Hood Festival by Maid Marian and then earns the title of "Sir" or "Lady".

Knighting is an age-old tradition at the Festival.  Over 400 people have been knighted in ceremonies spanning 3 decades.

The Robin Hood Festival Knighting Committee is seeking nominations for people to be honored at the Summer 2018 Festival. 

We are looking for people who are long-time volunteers in our community, outstanding citizens who go out of their way to help others, and folks who make our town and our world a better place.  In the past, some of the knighted people have been very well-known citizens of Sherwood; others are folks who quietly make a positive difference to their neighbors.

If you know of someone whom you would like to nominate, please send an email or letter with the following information:

• Your name, email address, and phone number
• The name of the person to be nominated, with email address, mailing address and/or phone number.
• Information about the person's service to the community and why you feel this person should be selected.  It is helpful to have this description be as full as possible, so that the committee can get a sense of the extent of the person's service.

Please submit nominations by May 15, 2018 to:  robinhoodfestival@gmail.com or Sherwood Robin Hood Festival, P.O. Box 496, Sherwood, OR 97140.  Thank you!
