Kingston Flower Baskets
It’s that time of the year again! Our Rotary Club and the Community Beautification Committee are set to put up the hanging flower baskets around Kingston on May 20th. The slow start to spring and colder than average weather has pushed the annual basket hanging a little further back this year, but they are coming soon!
If you’ve previously sponsored a basket, look out for an email in your inbox. This letter will be attached. If you’d like to sponsor a basket, you can do so by mailing a check and this form to PO Box 832, Kingston, WA 98346. You can also pay (with an additional credit card processing fee) at the Village Green. The cost for a first time sponsor is $100 with an annual maintenance fee of $40 for each year after the first year. These sponsorship forms will also be available at the Village Green.
These flower baskets are 100% donation-funded and put up and cared for throughout the summer by volunteers. We appreciate your support and help to make our town beautiful!

Kingston North Kitsap Rotary Club Leading Effort to Build
Sports and Recreation Complex to Serve North Kitsap
The multi-use, multi-generational baseball/softball, flag football, soccer, basketball, pickleball, and volleyball complex would be built around outdoor fields and courts, with an indoor facility as well. The vision is an approximately 20-acre complex, for year-round use, to host North Kitsap games and activities, as well as regional tournaments that would bring visitors - and economic impact - to North Kitsap hotels, stores, and restaurants. A secondary goal is this venue would also accommodate not just sports-related activities, but provide a conduit for other uses such as birthday parties, family gatherings, and things like zip lines, a ropes course, frisbee golf, bubble soccer, and team-building activities. The vision is inclusive of public-private opportunity where, potentially, businesses can be brought in to augment not just a sport-only mindset. According to Rotary Lead Clint Boxman, this project would be similar in scope and approach to the building of Village Green Community Center, with multiple grants, stakeholders, and donors. It is entirely possible the land for the complex might be donated.
