Windermere Workers
Rebuild Stage at
Poulsbo’s Raab Park
POULSBO
Employees of Windermere Real Estate’s Poulsbo office recently
rebuilt the music stage at Raab Park in Poulsbo as part of the
company’s Community Service Day.
The 25-year-old stage had been condemned by the city, putting the
Chamber of Commerce Commerce’s annual American Music Festival in
jeopardy. The city lacked funds to make repairs, so some 40
Windermere employees spent June 18 rebuilding and repainting the
stage.
Materials, labor and financial support were supplied by Home Depot,
Peninsula Paints and Costco.
