The following is approved by Immortal Knights IKPSMC President Randy "Jake" Patton:
On December 2nd 2011 I made the trek north. At this meeting were Jetwash,
Mickey, Minnie, Bubba and Dory. As I explained why I made the decision to
leave our old club behind, I could see the discontent rise in their eyes.
It was then that I pitched my idea of a club that would be what I had
thought our former club was supposed to be.
Not only did they find the idea of starting a new club intriguing, each
one of them removed their patches and decided to help me form our new
club. I had the idea of using "IK" in the name of our fledgling club. I wanted
the name "knights" as part of the club. It took us a while, but Mickey
came up with the word "immortal" for the first part of our name. We named
our club the Immortal Knights Public Safety Motorcycle Club.
The Phoenix was chosen as our back patch centerpiece. We chose that as we
saw ourselves rising from the ashes of a crumbling mess and moving onward
from that in a rebirth of something new.
The reasoning behind using the letters I & K are, "I" is the ninth letter
of the alphabet and "K" is the eleventh. Together they represent 911. The
911 has a double meaning in our club. It represents September 11th when
the United States was attacked, and the emergency number that is called
when the public is in need of a first responder.
It was decided that the sign of our clubs founders would be the infinity
symbol. The infinity would represent the original eight members of the
Immortal Knights as well as keeping the memories of the fallen first
responders alive.
When we started this club, we thought about how we wanted to approach our
bylaws. We wrote them with a national flavor but knew that we did not want
to grow too fast. After the experiences from our former life, we saw
firsthand what fast growth can do to an organization. So, we decided to
take it slow. If that means we never grow out of the state of Utah, so be
it. With that
