SUMMARY: In August of 2008 the Parks and Recreation Dept. held a public meeting at Kiwanis
Park to obtain neighborhood ideas for improving the facility. The Dept. received a $40,000 CDBG
Grant in 2009 toward the improvements in addition to a pledge of donated cash and labor from the
Bremerton Kiwanis Club. An additional $400,000 is needed to complete the renovation of Kiwanis
Park. The Land and Water Conservation (LWCF) is an appropriate grant resource for park
development and renovation projects. LWCF funding has assisted the City with similar projects
including Evergreen and Blueberry Park construction.
