It is so hard to believe that the Labor Day weekend is here and our young people will be heading back to school very soon.  Parents are out getting school supplies and clothes.  Thank you to all of our members who were able to donate some school supplies to Fishline as that really makes our young people feel at home.

Our members are truly great people helping each other with that little extra that is needed.  This year we all need to be mindful of our friends and the children of our community.

In August we had an update from both Mayor Becky Erickson and Representative Sherry Appleton.  None of the economic news is fantastic but we continue to invite new businesses to Poulsbo and look for additional opportunities to fill the empty store fronts.  Currently I believe that there are only two spaces open on Front Street.  New companies are still looking into and opening on Viking Way.  We will miss Courtesy Ford but hope that a large retailer will find that area an attractive place to locate. 

We need to help fill our two hotels and the Chamber continues to promote "Staycations" to the Seattle area, north through Jefferson County and British Columbia and south to our neighbors in Oregon.  New Military families have been coming in to look into relocating to our lovely town, along with an influx of seniors.

Let's get ready for a spectacular, colorful Fall.  Come down and enjoy our Americana Music Festival, one of two fundraisers for the Greater Poulsbo Chamber.  The date is Saturday, September 10, 2011.  There will be fun for the kids, food from all of our great restaurants and two of our new micro breweries will be serving on the north end of Muriel Iverson Williams Waterfront Park.  Come down from noon to 7 p.m. and make a day of it.
