+4America Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 Oh....I likey! Very sentimental to me too. I met my husband in Wichita. On one of our first dates we walked along the Arkansas River and ended up at The Keeper of The Plains statue. Special! Order sent. NEAT! They just redid the Keeper: The Keeper of the Plains proudly stands at the confluence of the Big and Little Arkansas rivers with hands raised high. Since the sculpture’s installation as part of the efforts to commemorate the Bicentennial, it has become a symbol for the City of Wichita and a tribute to the Native American tribes who continue to gather at this sacred heartland. The Keeper also serves as the focal point of an eight-year, $20.6 million restoration and river beautification project completed in May 2007. The 44-foot Cor-Ten steel Keeper of the Plains sculpture now stands elevated on a 35-foot rock promontory surrounded by four quadrants representing the elements of water, fire, air and earth. Pedestrians can directly access the area from two new, bow-and-arrow-inspired cable-stay bridges that span both the Little and Big Arkansas rivers. Fire drums located on boulders at the foot of the Keeper dramatically light the night. A mist rises up from a pause point that leads down to the water’s edge. Plantings of sage, bottlebrush, medicinal herbs, prairie grasses, yuccas and cactus further create a sense of place and time. On May 18, 1974 renowned Native American artist Blackbear Bosin donated the Keeper of the Plains statue to the citizens of Wichita. It was erected at the peninsula point of the two rivers and dedicated May 18, 1974. Senator Bob Dole was on hand for the dedication. The Keeper of the Plains was rededicated on May 18, 2007. The area is free and open to the public year-round Quote Link to comment

rickyjay Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I have tried sending an email to cust_service@thekeyconnection.net to check the status of my order of the triple header.

+The Klever Boys Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Well, I'm sorry to say that this is another coin that has failed to materialise - ordered and paid for on Jan 11th The last thing I received on this was way back in June, when I was told that the reason my order hadn't been sent as it was an overseas shipment, but I could either pay the shipping or get a refund - I opted to pay the difference in shipping and wrote back. Since then, nothing Following my email on June 18th, I have emailed three times without reply and also tried via the GC profile page in case my mails were getting rejected. I didn't post this in the new thread related to this kind of thing as the rules mention not posting if contact has already been made, but wondered if anyone else had not received their coins? If you are reading this, 4America, can you please get in touch and let me know what's going on please!! Quote Link to comment
+The Klever Boys Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Still nothing. Looks like I'm not going to get a coin or a refund on what I've paid for!! Quote Link to comment
