Readers,
In case you missed it this morning at www.kitsapsun.com, here is the link to my story about last week’s Port of Bremerton meeting on the 737 to which the media was not invited. I was able to piece together a story Monday, based on attendees’ description of what went on. Also, find below some conclusions I found about Kitsap County’s workforce that I didn’t have room to put in the story.
Thank you,
