	According to a8 8/21/2021 post in Adventureland Iowa Fans group on Facebook, the shields that hung on the walls were references to folks who built the attraction: "Tonya Marie: Question time. Who can help? 😁 My father in law and his brother poured the concrete for The Dragon many moons ago. Not sure what Adventureland will be doing with it in the future but there were 'wooden shields' made and hung up on the walls with peoples last names of who helped build it."

Park CEO responded: "Michael Krantz: Interestingly enough, these crests are currently laying in the office hallway (we aren’t the most organized this time of year) and all of the appropriate family members have been notified or will be in the near future. / These are the folks who have made Adventureland possible, if any family wishes, we’ll hang their crest on or around the entrance to the Dragon Slayer."
