Other key fire prevention information was shared, geared directly toward our young and eager to learn students.

7 Sport Court BRINNON CRIER November 2014 The Quilcene Sport Court Fund, a non-profit association incorporated in the State of Washington with the purpose of resurfacing the tennis court and basketball court at Quilcene Community Park, is still seeking donations. The Fund has over $3,000 collected so far. Stop by and donate to Quilcene Sport Court Fund if you want to help restore one of Quilcene s fundamental community assets. The sport court, along with campground and community center bring in people to enjoy the downtown and its services and provides healthful recreation, free for all ages. Local businesses benefit as well from shopping and food sales. The campground has had another very successful year with $3,228 in revenues from camping this year, which follows a 50% increase every year for the last three years since it was reopened. We have a new slide ordered to replace the broken one at the playground and that will be installed with a small dedication ceremony and party for the children in the very near future. Recently the Garden Club has helped restore lawn and landscaping adjacent to the Community Center and Playground. The Garden Club has also replaced dying trees in the community center borders. Thanks to all who have been supportive of the resurface project and don t forget, you can have your name on the donor board right on the sport court fence.

Joe and Joy Baisch, Proprietors 3485 Dosewllips road Currently, we pick up at Trader Joe's in Silverdale on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month. I received a call from the manager of Central Kitsap Food Bank saying that we have an opportunity to pick up on all Saturdays if we want to do that. To those who already go they can tell you that it fills a pickup truck. It takes two people to do the job and can be a good workout. That being said, it is a bountiful amount of quality food. I am looking for volunteers who might like to try it. Windermere Hood Canal Quality When someone needs a Saturday off, we can always find someone to fill in for them.
