With over forty years of conservation accomplishments in the region, Great Peninsula Conservancy (GPC) is a trusted leader in our community. We work in collaboration with local governments, tribes, landowners, and community groups, providing the tools and expertise to preserve the special landscapes in the Great Peninsula region of Kitsap, north Mason, and west Pierce counties. We commit to caring for the lands we protect to ensure wildlife and people enjoy the many benefits of nature well into the future, and we enrich lives by offering opportunities for people to experience the natural world up close. 

The mission of GPC is to protect forever the natural habitats, rural landscapes, and open spaces of the Great Peninsula of Washington’s Puget Sound. We do this by creating nature preserves, partnering with public agencies to create local parks, and by placing conservation easements on private land that help sustain family farms and forests through generations. Each year, GPC’s nature walks, youth education programs, and land stewardship activities get hundreds of people out on protected lands with the goal of fostering an enduring land conservation ethic among people of all ages.

VOLUNTEERS:
The coordination of this will be through the use of every Rotarian to have a small donation of their time or larger...but this can only be as successful as the amount of volunteers we have to put this on. The structure will be with several smaller subcommittees with Project Mgrs to lead and coordinate. The Project Mgrs will participate in the Auction Committee Mtgs. We hold these every two weeks on Mondays with both in person and Zoom meetings. Some of the volunteer time will only be on the day of the event and while others will be leading up to it. You are welcome to volunteer on more then one subcommittee. See link below to take you to the Signup Genius website where we will coordinate our volunteers and centralized way for the project managers to see who all is on their subcommittee.

If you are volunteering for the Auction site help or check in or check out, there will be training provided for the software we are using.  The software company provides a lot of support while we get up to speed on the functions it provides.

Etta Projects improves water, sanitation, and health in rural Bolivia. Empowerment, education, improved infrastructure, and local partnerships are key ingredients that Etta Projects implements to promote vibrant, healthy communities. Empowering women in these communities is essential to the success of our programs.

Etta Projects was created in 2003 to honor the life and legacy of Etta Turner, a teenager who believed in the power of the individual to effect meaningful change. Though Etta Turner's young life ended tragically in November 2002 while she was in Bolivia as a Rotary International Exchange student, her vision of helping transcend poverty by creating deep friendships and harnessing the power of community participation lives on in our work today.

North Kitsap Fire & Rescue serves 46 square miles that are largely forested and rural with pockets of suburban density around communities such as Hansville, Kingston, Miller Bay, Indianola and Suquamish. The district is situated on the long and narrow northern tip of the Kitsap Peninsula, surrounded on three sides by water and 34 miles of shoreline. Areas served by NKF&R can be reached by land through Poulsbo from the south and west via Washington SR 16 from Tacoma or SR 3 from Shelton and Olympia. Seattle lies about 12 miles southeast of Kingston, and is accessible most directly by Washington State Ferries‘ Kingston – Edmonds or Bainbridge Island – Seattle routes. To the west of the district and across Hood Canal is the Olympic Peninsula, via the Hood Canal Bridge. Bainbridge Island is immediately south of the district, across the Agate Pass Bridge.
