- The great news is, by the time you read this, we will have power on the property and at the Office. I am thankful for each of the contractors coming together to make this happen. It was quite the process. They pulled power down the property line, installed the high voltage transformer and wired it up and installed the pole at the front of the property. Later tonight (9pm Thursday) they will tie in across Sedgwick Rd. I also want to give a shout out to Brad owner of Caseco for helping with a last minute fix for PSE and being available to backfill.
- I just heard today that Kitsap County has moved to a level two quarantine. This is encouraging, especially as it relates to Soccer Camp. The desire would be to be a level three by camp week July 20-24. We are planning on having camp if we can! We have put in place several contingencies to address anticipated barriers for this year. We will be promoting the camp digitally this year (there will not be a physical mailer). Registration is currently being delayed. There may also be group size limitations. We have all the major pieces in place and trust that Washington will hit the opening phasing targets. Thanks for praying.
