Announcements
Instead of its regular monthly meeting in May, the Manchester Community Advisory Council is hosting an open house from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, May 7 at Manchester Elementary School, 1901 California Ave E. Drop in anytime to learn about local organizations and resources, meet your neighbors and find out what's happening. Everyone is welcome!
Representatives from Kitsap County Departments of Public Works, Community Development and Emergency Management, the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office, Manchester State Park, the Manchester Water District, Port of Manchester, South Kitsap Fire & Rescue and South Kitsap School District, along with other local organizations will all be on hand to share information about planning, emergency preparedness, programs, resources and community events. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, find out how to get involved, where to turn for assistance and how to share ideas and concerns.
Questions? Contact Anne Williams in the Commissioners' Office at awilliams@kitsap.gov.
