water access points. State Parks are funded through the State general fund There are 14 park sites that cover over 2,606 -acres.
There are eight sites available for camping and provide a number of recreational activities that range from beach and water

variety of services and facilities. The park rests on a high bluff overlooking Puget Sound. Many historic buildings remain at this
19th century military fort. The Fort Worden Collaborative, directed by Washington State Parks, have laid the groundwork to build
a vital partnership economy that will preserve and enhance the extraordinary resource of Fort Worden State Park for generations to
come. Fort Worden provides a calendar of workshops, performances, lectures, exhibitions, and other events open to the public.
Old Fort Townsend is a 367-acre marine camping park features 3,960 feet of saltwater shoreline on Port Townsend Bay. The

Dosewallips State Park is a 425-acre, year-round camping park with 5,500 feet of saltwater shoreline on Hood Canal and 5,400
feet of freshwater shoreline on either side of the Dosewallips River. The park is unique in that it offers both freshwater and

Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife provides ten public sites providing both fresh water and salt water access
for fishing, boater access and shellfish gathering. Three sites providing fresh water lake access with boat launches for fish ing are at

hiking trails. Point Whitney Tidelands (10-acres) with 2,000’ of saltwater beach provide shellfish, boat launch, fishing pier and
visitor center.
Washington Department of Natural Resources manages over 45 properties and 23,000 acres in East Jefferson County to provide
important economic and environmental benefits for the County. In March 2011 the Public Lands Group prepared the draft Forests
for the Future: An Asset Management Strategy for State Forestlands in East Jefferson County. As stated in the document, “these
public lands become increasingly important for Forest Land Base, Timber Revenue, Recreation and Environment.” The 45
DNR properties inventoried are Trust Lands managed for Common School, Forest Board, University or Natural Areas. As stated in
the draft Forests for the Future, “due to the dispersed nature of the state timberlands, management for recreation in East Jefferson
County provides accessible outdoor recreational opportunities close to most people who live in the county and near population
centers, including Port Townsend, Chimacum, Port Ludlow and Quilcene. Many of these public lands are increasingly valued and
used by the local citizens for hunting, fishing, walking, mountain biking and as open space.” The summarized inventory is from
the summarized spreadsheets from the Forests for the Future draft report.
In 2010, the Washington State Legislature initiated the Discover Pass which helps preserve public access to recreation lands
managed by the Washington State Parks Commission, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources and the Washington
Department of Fish and Wildlife. The Discover Pass revenues replace lost state General Fund support for these recreation lands.

There are a variety of special districts provided under Washington Statutes that exist statewide
that provide infrastructure and services in a wide range of areas including fire control, libraries,
ports and hospitals. In some cases, special districts play an expanded role in providing outdoor
recreation opportunities, conservation and resource management services. The Jefferson
County Parks and Recreation District #1 formed in 1984 with the purpose of providing
social, recreational, inspirational, economic development, safety and security needs for the
Toandos Peninsula community. In 1992 the Laurel B. Johnson Community Center building was
dedicated and in 2002 the District was expanded. The Port of Port Townsend is a special
purpose district created through Title 53 RCW and maintains and develops property and
facilities to promote sustainable economic growth, to provide community access to Port
facilities and services, and to protect and maintain community resources and maritime heritage.
The Port provides public use opportunities at many of their facilities for recreation. Other
special purpose districts include the Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue District, the Jefferson
Healthcare Hospital, the Jefferson County Library District and the Jefferson County
Conservation District. These special districts provide a wide-range of educational programs,
workshops, classes and events. They provide support groups, community forums, seminars and
symposiums.

Definitions:
Cultural and Educational Special Events
Periodic events such as concerts, parades, dance, festivals, and shows with a cultural focus. Examples include
but are not limited to the Rhody Festival, Concerts on the Dock, the Studio Tour, and the Port Townsend Kinetic
Sculpture Race, or the Centrum Acoustic Blues Festival.
Sporting Special Events
Non-interscholastic, periodic events such as races, tournaments, contests, or meets with a sporting focus.
Examples include but are not limited to the Ranger Run, the 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament, the Rat Island
Regatta, or fishing tournaments.
After-school Programs
Regularly scheduled childcare, typically for ages pre-school to sixth grade that usually occurs at a dedicated
facility, primarily so that the parents can work during the times before and after school. Programs usually take
place in an enriched environment with adult supervision in which the child can pursue his personal goals such as
homework, casual sports, or arts and crafts. Food is usually provided. Some afterschool programs include
structured educational or recreational classes or activities. The typical age for afterschool programs is pre-
school up to sixth grade. After sixth grade many children are either: considered old enough to be home alone (a
high risk choice for middle school and high school ages); are enrolled in more structured activities like sports or
clubs; or go to free drop in locations such as the library or the recreation center. After-school programs are
sometimes subsidized for those who cannot pay a fee, are often seen as a ‘prevention’ measure in the public
health community, and are often formed in partnership with the public schools.
Page 5 of 7 TABLE A-1
Cultural and Educational Special Interest Classes
Non-sporting educational enrichment classes and activities in groups or one-on-one, taught by an expert, that
usually occur on a regular basis such as piano lessons, photography class, writers workshop, language, voice
lessons, dance, martial arts, woodworking etc. Classes are usually for a fee and are often focused on training or
developing a specific skill or knowledge base.
Sporting Special Interest Classes
Sporting educational enrichment classes and activities such as swimming lessons, fencing lessons, sailing lessons,
rowing lessons, or ski lessons. Such classes are often intended to overcome barriers to entry to a specific sport
by safely orienting individuals to activities, equipment, facilities, while building needed skills.
Recreational Sports Leagues
Non-interscholastic team sports leagues with game rules that emphasize recreational, cooperative, non-
competitive, and community values over competition. Examples of recreational game rules include equal play
time, no score kept, no standings kept; rules that increase scoring by lowering defense and increasing offense
such as no double team or no goal keeper; off sides allowed, no tournament play, no uniforms, no try-outs,
coaches not allowed to choose players, awards for teamwork or cooperation, and so on. Examples include the
co-ed recreational adult softball, and co-ed recreational children’s basketball and soccer.
Interscholastic Sports
Individual and team sports organized by schools. Usually starting in middle school, that follows the rules of
their state athletic association for competition purposes. Rules are requirements are strict and competition is
held as the main goal. In most schools, interscholastic sports also includes science and cultural competition such
as, knowledge bowl, odyssey of the mind etc.
Summer Day Camp
A category of childcare designed to follow the ‘traditional camping model’, usually for younger children grades
kindergarten to 5th grade, provided so that parents can work while children can enjoy the values of the summer
season such as being outside, exploring, understanding nature, pursuing skill based activities and so forth.
Usually there are a wide variety of structured and semi-structured educational activities in which the children
have an element of choice. For many parents, summer day camp is a replacement for school. In many locations,
summer day camp is highly subsidized and is seen as critical to the functioning of the family. Summer day camp
is different from sports camps because it lasts all day, addresses a wide variety of the child’s needs, and is not
focused on a specific skill.
Swim Lessons, Aquatics
Swim lessons and aquatics are given their own category in this inventory because they are so highly specialized,
facility focused, and unique. Swim lessons usually prescribe to a specific curriculum, are based on levels, are
taught by highly skilled and trained instructors in controlled environments. Swim lessons are unique because of
the focus on safety and life long skills.
Youth Competitive Club Sports
Always organized in the private sector, competitive club sports for youth embrace competitive values and are
available in almost every imaginable team or individual sport. Most common is baseball, football, and soccer.
Competitive sports usually align themselves with district, state, and national associations that provide services
such as rules, oversight and insurance. Examples are little league baseball, club soccer, and club football. Many
competitive clubs focus on recreational values and development for younger players in order to have a pool of
competitive players to draw from as the children get older.
Page 6 of 7 TABLE A-1
Teen Center
Enriched, choice focused, casual, social, facility based child care for teens to drop in during high risk times
usually before and after school, but also sometimes weekend nights and summers. Teen centers are seen as safe
‘hang-outs’ and they feature music, food, games, television, recreational pick up sports, casual mentorship,
role modeling adults, and a low level of supervision. Teen centers often promote cultural or sporting events like
climbing competitions, talent shows, or concerts. Teen centers are often created to prevent health and safety
problems such as drug and alcohol use, teen pregnancy, etc. Teen centers usually do not require registration or
fees. Examples include the teen center in the Chimacum Schools, the free drop in recreation program at the
Jefferson County Recreation Center in Port Townsend.
Free Drop in Recreation
Making a recreational facility available for anyone to use during specific hours. Typical activities include ping
pong, pool, foosball, gymnasium play, climbing wall, video games and the like. Families often participate
together, friends might meet at the facility, and all ages are welcomed. Supervision is usually provided, but
pre-registration is not required.
Child Care
Care for infants and very young children in a specially designed facility or by a private party in their home,
usually for a fee, but often subsidized. Usually provided so that parents can work.
Volunteer Special Interest Clubs
Similar to a special interest class, except lead by a volunteer lay-person not a paid expert, and organized in a
group setting. The club usually focuses on an activity, a project, an event, preparation for a contest etc. The
leader provides guidance, facilitation, and support to help the club organize. Special interest clubs span a huge
range of activities for youth and adults and they include the extension programs of the land grant universities
like 4-H, school based clubs that are organized by teachers, and clubs focused on values such as religion or
service.
Mentorship
Mentorship is partnering an adult with a child with the goal of forming a supportive relationship. The most
common example is Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America. Often, but not always, it is implied that the child needs
more positive adult support, advocacy, relationship, and mentorship in his or her life. Increasingly mentorship
programs are facility based in public locations such as schools or churches.
Health and Safety Programs
Health and safety programs include a broad variety of services such as school nurses, police in schools,
prevention curricula taught in schools, free clinics, nutritional programs, screening, education, free dental and
health clinics and so on. They are included in this inventory because there are components of health and safety
in many recreation programs.
Special Recreation Programs
Special recreation is a category of services with the common goal of helping people with special needs to find,
adapt, and access recreational and leisure activities. Examples include competitive sports such as the Special
Olympics, and recreational activities such as the special recreation club. Similar to educational integration that
occurs in the public schools, a trend is recreational integration and inclusion of all people into existing
programs. Inclusion is achieved by adaptation of rules and equipment, provision of special support, and
assistance with access.

Public Private Partnerships
A public private partnership is created when a government owned resource (such as recreation center or athletic
field) or government funds (such as tax revenues) are used by an organization in the private sector, to provide a
service. Justifications for public private partnership include: the service is needed but unfilled by government,
the service has broad community benefits, the service is efficient, the service is temporary, the service is
flexible, the service requires expertise or equipment government does not have, or the partnership creates
leverage for other benefits such as fundraising. Public private partnerships are almost always based on legal
agreements such as leases, contracts for services, licenses, concession agreements, etc. Key component of
modern public/private partnerships are performance standards and transparency both of which are needed to
insure accountability to the general public. Examples of public private partnership in recreation include leasing
of public land to little league sports , granting a license to build a horse park on public land, contracting with a
landscape company to care for Memorial Field, giving city tax funds to the YMCA to provide childcare programs,
or rent free use of a school building by a gymnastics team.
