General Department Information

Kitsap County Parks and Recreation operating & maintenance budget for 2010 is approximately $3.4 million.

Kitsap County Parks and Recreation is comprised of 78 park sites, totaling more than 5,800 acres, 34 miles of trails, and 228 miles of shoreline.

All of this Park land is managed and maintained by 19 maintenance workers:

  • Fairgrounds & Events Center - 2 maintenance workers, 2 ball field workers, 2 part time event assistants, and 1 supervisor

Seasonal extra help workers provide additional park maintenance throughout our park system.
