I have three sons involved in Sequim sports, I feel kind of like the Mariners and Seahawks, besides Port Angeles, North Kitsap (1 hour drive one way) is our closest league game during the regular season. And when it comes to playoffs like football we have to play in the closest turf (North Kitsap)field for a home game earned by being league champs, baseball tournament we played a morning game in Silverdale than had to go to Tacoma to play the afternoon game, than the next day if we won that game, back to Tacoma for another game. So figure gas, game tickets bridge toll, yeah this is real fair to the families and kids that happen to live on the Olympic Peninsula.
