💙 To our board members — thank you for your vision, dedication, and behind-the-scenes support. Your leadership makes events like this possible.
💙 To all of the families and attendees — thank you for showing up with imagination and excitement. With nearly 250 guests, Box City was buzzing with creativity, laughter, and connection. Seeing children build, play, and collaborate reminds us why this work matters.
💙 A special thank you to Councilmember Jeff Coughlin for sponsoring our use of the Norm Dicks Government Center and for championing safe, inclusive spaces for Kitsap families. Your support helped make this event possible.
💙 Thank you to Mayor Greg Wheeler for taking time out of your busy schedule to stop by and show your support. Your presence meant a great deal to our team and community.
