Hello,
I’m writing this email with the hope that it will help influence decisions being made on current budget cuts due to the deficit the County is currently facing.
Our family lives in Port Townsend. My husband and I have two kids-ages 3 and 6. We rely on the use of the Port Townsend Recreation Center more than three times a week as a warm, safe,
local place to play with our kids after school. The staff we interact with are always helpful and kind. We often see other families and it has easily become a regular hang out spot
for them as well. Besides using the space for unstructured play, we also attend Kaleidoscope weekly and have begun participating in basketball for our eldest. We have rented the rec
center for birthday parties and hope to continue to do so in the future.
Please don’t close this space that helps families in Port Townsend and our greater community have a place to play and feel welcome and supported.
Thank you for your time,
Lena Curtis
