A little bit of what we’ll be getting cleaned up

Kitsap’s Public Health District, Kitsap Community Resources, and the Kitsap County Solid Waste Division are coordinating sincere efforts to take care of people living unsheltered in our neighborhoods and maintain a clean environment. This team has identified a large project just south of Veteran’s Memorial Park in Port Orchard and we are looking forward to getting to work.

Come join us for a couple of fun, dirty hours that will leave our environment a little cleaner and share a little dignity and humanity with our neighbors!
