How it became part of Kitsap Counties responsibility I don't know. It is isolated and relatively unknown spot. Perfect for illegal activity. I commend the deputy for doing his part, but he probably has his hands full with big time crime now. The old way of doing something was better. Having an organization adopt the park. Close it after hours. Have neighbors call the cops when the park is in use after dark. Take back our little niches of humanity. Post some lights and a sign. You will be arrested after hours if you are in this park. A little civic duty "might" make the difference. Or maybe Kitsap county is just waiting to put the park back into the tax rolls by selling it.
