The Clan Anniversary, sometimes called the Clanniversary, is a series of events held annually to celebrate the inception of the Wilderness Guardians on December 6th of 2003.
Overview
Anniversary celebrations are held once a year and consist of a series of in-game events, many of which are open to the public. In the early years, all events were hosted on December 6th, however in later years and as more events were scheduled, the celebrations would take place over the course of several (typically 7) days - either in the weeks leading up to or following December 6th, though for some Anniversaries events were hosted as late as the following year. An Anniversary has been held every year since 2004 except for 2006 and 2011. The Anniversary generally has a specific board or boards created on the Forums and there may be as many as 20 different events.

WG Anniversaries
2004
The clan's first Anniversary was scheduled to commence on December 11th of 2004. After discussion, the first day took place on the 11th as planned, but the majority of events were held separately from the 19th to the 24th.
Day One
Day 1 consisted of the Veteran War.
DG Anniversary
WG's junior clan the Descendant Guardians has celebrated one anniversary. This took place on June 20th 2012, exactly one year after The Reckoning in which the third iteration of DG was established.
Four events were held in total, lasting over four hours over the course of the single day. Each of the three staff members (Leader Vio and advisors Mojo and Koffin Cat) organised one. Mojo's event Battle Royale came first, which was a no-limits fight in the battlefield of WG's Clan Citadel. This was followed by Koffin Cat's One Night In Cabbage - a cabbage-bombing event at the Grand Exchange. Vio's Steel of Legends came third, in which DG and allies BlacKnights took part in a steel war (with rune weapons) in the Wilderness. The celebrations ended with The Rebirth - a drop party for both WG and DG in the Citadel, where 10,000,000 GP in items was dropped by Vio.
