“These are exactly the kind of all-ages, family centered recreational activities the KPFD wants to fund”, said Linda Berry-Maraist, former Chair of the KPFD. “They support the local economy and enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Kitsap County,” Linda added. 

EventFund grants are awarded through an application review process and focus on activities that generate economic support to local businesses and provide family centered entertainment and healthy recreational opportunities for Kitsap County residents.
